ChatGPT: A Vital Tool or A Creativity Killer?

The world was sheathed in rapid transitions that kicked off on November 30, 2022. When it came to the race to unveil the first AI model, OpenAI outperformed all the other high-tech businesses. While it undoubtedly assists us in sharpening our abilities, the new AI era also raises new concerns.

The full planet is looking to ChatGPT for its solutions to day-to-day nuisances. Some use it more than others as a learning tool, while others use it to copy content from the generative AI and use it as their own. Or, will ChatGPT foster or stifle creativity? They often don't realize that AI-generated content is fairly easy to identify. In this case, it behaves as a creativity killer as over-reliance on AI may discourage critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

HOWEVER, DOES EVERYONE USE IT TO THEIR BENEFIT?

This is what most people use ChatGPT for. But it is a creativity catalyst for a person who uses it to hone their skills. It takes a human an entire lifetime to catch up to AI's capabilities. Because of these reasons, ChatGPT can engage users in thought - provoking talks, offer various diverse perspectives, and assist in breaking mental barriers by presenting new concepts and solutions. This way, it can complement human thinking.

Another perspective of the story highlights the vast resources available for a student struggling with the homework: ChatGPT is a wonderful tool to the rescue. It can provide the answers in seconds explaining solutions clearing all doubts -- a truly invaluable tutor ever! Is this just the sugarcoated side, or is there more to it? To be honest, it's known that ChatGPT consistently provides accurate answers to most of the questions, as long as they are based on pure theory or can be solved using an algorithm. Even rating other AI models on this topic, Gemini or Microsoft Copilot are more inclined towards theoretical knowledge and lack experience in solving real-time practical questions. For instance, asking Gemini a physics question might result in an explanation that leaves you frustrated!
