ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI) powered chatbot that creates surprisingly intelligent-sounding text in response to user prompts, *including Research paper writing, homework assignments and exam-style questions*. The replies are so lucid, well-researched and decently referenced that some academics are calling the bot the death knell for conventional forms of educational assessment. *Explore the Research Questions with OpeAI ChatGPT * https://chat.openai.com/chat Generate an outline for a research topic – (write your research topic here and see the result of ChatGPT). Provide a topic and get study notes. Create ideas for fitness and virtual reality games. Create interview questions. Regards Dr. Sandeep Bhavsar Librarian SPM Prin.
