很多小伙伴是不是很疑惑，ChatGPT究竟是什么？真的有这么厉害吗？
我们先从一起发生在美国北密歇根大学的真实事件说起。
“全班最好的论文”
是ChatGPT写的
While grading essays for his world religions course last month, Antony Aumann, a professor of philosophy at Northern Michigan University, read what he said was easily “the best paper in the class.”
上个月，北密歇根大学哲学教授安东尼·奥曼在为他的世界宗教课程批改论文时，读到了一篇他所认为的“全班最好的论文”。
It explored the morality of burqa bans with clean paragraphs, fitting examples and rigorous arguments.
在这篇论文中，作者以简洁的段落、恰当的举例和严谨的论据，探讨了罩袍禁令的道德意义。
Mr. Aumann confronted his student over whether he had written the essay himself.
奥曼教授质问提交该篇论文的学生，论文是否由本人所写。
The student confessed to using ChatGPT, a chatbot that delivers information, explains concepts and generates ideas in simple sentences — and, in this case, had written the paper.
这名学生承认使用了ChatGPT，这是一个可以用简单的句子传递信息、解释概念和输出想法的聊天机器人——在这种情况下，他用ChatGPT写了这篇论文。
Alarmed by his discovery, Mr. Aumann decided to transform essay writing for his courses this semester. He plans to require students to write first drafts in the classroom, using browsers that monitor and restrict computer activity. In later drafts, students have to explain each revision.
奥曼教授对此感到震惊，决定在本学期对他的课程进行论文写作的改革。他计划要求学生在教室里写第一稿，学生要使用监控和限制计算机活动的浏览器。在往后的草稿中，学生必须对每一次修改作出解释。
Mr. Aumann, who may forgo essays in subsequent semesters, also plans to weave ChatGPT into lessons by asking students to evaluate the chatbot ‘s responses.
奥曼教授还可能会在以后的学期中放弃布置论文，他还计划将ChatGPT纳入课程，要求学生评估聊天机器人的回答。
马斯克曾在推特上表示：ChatGPT好得吓人，我们离强大到危险的人工智能不远了。
所以，未来，基于人工智能的 ChatGPT会取代人类的工作吗？
There are also some who predict that tools like ChatGPT will threaten people’slivelihoodsas it automates many tasks currently being performed by human beings.
也有一些人预测，像ChatGPT这样的工具会威胁到人们的生计，因为它将目前由人类执行的许多任务自动化了。
AI-based chatbots can be used to automate some tasks, but they aren’t capable of many skills that people are great at, like critical thinking, creativity, or strategic decision-making. Instead, chatbots can be used to supplement customer service staff, allowing people to focus on more complex and more ‘human’ tasks.
基于人工智能的聊天机器人可以用来自动完成一些任务，但它们并不能胜任人们擅长的许多技能，如批判性思维、创造力或战略决策。
