Grad School Femtoring: Inclusive Grad School Stories, Personal Development, and Productivity Tips for First-Gen BIPOCs

Shownotes Transcript

The episode discusses some pros and cons of using Chat GPT in grad school. Chat GPT is an AI chat box tool that has caused a stir among many academics for its potential to transform teaching and how we learn both in helpful and harmful ways. I share what I’ve learned from using it over the last months. Some of the pros include its ability to simplify tasks related to generating ideas, summarizing information, and providing basic editing. One prominent con is that the information can be biased, inaccurate, and in some cases completely nonsensical. In sum, it’s best to try it out for yourself and not rely on it to assist you with anything that you do not have prior knowledge on.
