Is it a good idea to let a 16 yrs old use an AI assistant .i.e. chatgpt?
Is it a good idea to let a 16 yrs old use an AI assistant .i.e. chatgpt?
What are pros and cons of doing this? What impact it will have on the personality / mind of the person down the line after say 10 yrs?
You're viewing a single thread.
Why would you want that?
AI does not know things, it's answers depend on the wording of the guestion. I guess it could be used if limited (teaching how to use it responsibly and showing how they make mistakes even in very simple situations)
Much like a calculator both are more effective if you know what is happening so you can catch the mistakes and fix them
Ai know things. They are a collection of knowledge. Not everything they respond with is made up.
If it doesn't understand what it's saying can you really say it knows it? It has access to a lot of training data so it can get many things correct, but it's effectively just generating the most likely answer from the training data
Well obviously it doesn't "know" know, it's not alive.
We are all generating the most likely answer from the training data. But going back to the original question : what do you fear chatgpt would say that would be detrimental to a 16 year old?
