Higher education, we have a big, ChatGPT problem.
There are thousands of universities around the world, with their combined student populations numbering in the hundreds of millions – and at least a small percentage of them are now cheating with the help of ChatGPT.
Even since I graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in, ahem, 1986, I've thought about returning to school to do a Master's or some other more prestigious degree. It was the prospect of the workload, though, that held me back; the countless hours of research and studying to produce even one paper. I know, it's weird to hear a writer say that, but there's a difference between reporting an impactful story and writing a college essay that, if you're lucky, your professor will read and, if you're even luckier, will give you better than a passing grade for.
