Are we a bunch of Luddites?
Why not just ban spell checkers and any other computer aided technology?
ChatGPT is the future, we should practice it and learn to use it correctly, not hide from it.
Perhaps banning people that misuse it may be okay, but not those who use it for the better and to extend technology..
People can generate lots of good looking answers, that are not correct, without the need for a bot. I've seen it with my own eyes
In a year or so there may not be anyway to even detect if it was used.
Story
Back in first year Engineering, ~1974, I had a physics prof who made us use slide rules because she thought calculators were just a fad. At the end of the year we were pretty good with slide rules but most of us never used them again. Meanwhile the guys with more progressive profs were way ahead of us in the use of calculators.
