AI in the Classroom: A Practical Guide for Students 👨‍🏫

AI is here and it's here to stay, especially in the classroom. But how can students use it to their advantage? Teacher Ethan Mollick has put together a guide for his students on how to use AI tools to write, research, learn, and create. From using OpenAI's ChatGPT to write essays and speeches, to using AI to improve your writing, the guide covers it all.

But beware, with great AI power comes great responsibility. The guide also covers the risks of using AI, including the ethics of passing off the work of others as your own and the AI's tendency to generate entirely false content. So, students, it's time to embrace the AI revolution and use it to your advantage, just make sure to do it responsibly.
