ChatGPT -Boon or Bane: A Study from Students Perspective
Abstract
ChatGPT has taken given shocks and tremors to the online community within a few days of its launch. It has become the talk of the town, and people are discussing and deliberating what ChatGPT can and cannot do. ChatGPT is based on artificial intelligence and acts like humans, which makes it difficult to distinguish who is behind the scene. This study highlights the difference between ChatGPT and other Artificial Intelligence-based applications. ChatGPT was primarily introduced to help medical students with their writing requirements and has seen its application in other fields alike. The present study also empirically examines the awareness of ChatGPT among the students. The study attempts to find whether is there any difference in awareness of ChatGPT based on gender or the field of study among the students. The study results report that awareness of ChatGPT is not different across students of both genders and does differ based on the area of the study. Additionally, this study focuses on the application of ChatGPT along with the opportunities and challenges of ChatGPT. The study is useful to educators and teachers who are teaching at various levels. The study also finds its acceptability among academicians who are not sure how ChatGPT can change the education and evaluation of assessments. The study has been written in the early stages of the launch of ChatGPT and gives a perspective on the benefits and challenges of ChatGPT to the academic fraternity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
