I've been teaching programming for over 25 years, and I have seen the ways that tools have both helped and hindered students learning. ChatGPT is mostly in the latter category. | |

It is worse for programming than maths because if you can only program with ChatGPT, before long ChatGPT will take your job (c.f. what SquareSpace etc. have done to the market for people writing websites). | |

Also, I would assume that some of the people who solved 2 out of 4 questions last year would solve 2 questions this year and add 2 ChatGPT solutions and hope for the best. Also, as mentioned above, some people may think "I'll submit the ChatGPT answer now and do the exercise myself when I have time" and then never find the time to do it. We just don't know what's coming, but it's good to have thought about these things before they happen. | |
