Nigerian student's exam result voided for using ChatGPT to write answers

A Nigerian student has caused a stir on social media after revealing that she used ChatGPT to generate her exam answers and received a zero score.

In a video shared on social media, the lady displayed her marked exam script which showed that the lecturer had marked her answer sheet with zero and wrote that her answers were AI-generated.

The student, who expressed shock at the outcome, attributed her poor performance to ChatGPT, a language model developed by OpenAI.

She shared the video, which has since gone viral, and blamed the technology for “screwing her up.”

However, many social media users have criticized the student for resorting to copying verbatim from an online site, instead of researching and answering the questions using her own knowledge and understanding of the subject matter.

The incident has sparked a conversation on the use of technology in education, with some arguing that it can aid learning, while others insist that it promotes laziness and cheating.

It also highlights the importance of academic integrity and the consequences of plagiarism in academic settings.

See some of the reactions below;

Artfarihub said: “Something wey she suppose copy and paste for quillbot to paraphrase.. then maybe to paraphraser.io AI is going to be the end of human critical thinking ability tho.”

Chinonso_ stated: “Lol. When you use chatgpt for essays, you have to still humanize it and make it yours. It’s like copying someone’s name and matric number in a test/exam, the Lecturer would know you’re a cheat. There’s another website were after restructuring the essay, you can check to see if it still reads like its chatgpt generated.” 

Nkonyeasoa noted: “Chat GPT is an awesome tool, but it takes smart people to know how to work with it. A simple thing as asking chat GPT to generate your responses in a non-AI tone will take your article from 0 to 100. An intelligent person would use chat GPTs responses as a roadmap.” 

Fheytii stated: “How did the lecturer figure it out? Omo.” Thelope__’ added: “People aren’t getting the way around this thing. If you want to use AI, go through the answer it gives and add some essence of human expression, give more context and fluidity of thoughts. If possible sef, rewrite everything. Use the AI-generated content as a draft.”
