CTOnews.com, January 5, according to Chalkbeat, the Department of Education in New York City (NYC) has decided to block access to OpenAI's ChatGPT on school equipment and networks. There are many reasons for the blockade, the authorities are concerned about the accuracy of the information, and students may use the technology to write papers.

CTOnews.com learned that since its launch, ChatGPT has been filtered to ensure that only more secure requests are responded to. While this does prevent some misuse of the technology, ChatGPT sometimes replies with the wrong message, especially when it comes to math. It also believes that it is still 2021, when its study period ends and there is no connection to the rest of the Internet.

"Internet and device access to ChatGPT in New York City public schools is restricted because of concerns about the negative impact on students' learning, as well as concerns about the security and accuracy of content," said Jenna Lyle, a spokesman for the Department of Education. "while the tool may provide quick and simple answers to questions, it does not develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which are essential for academic and lifelong education."

Since the launch of ChatGPT a few weeks ago, there has been speculation about how it and similar technologies will affect education. Although education departments may improve their courses to adapt to advances in artificial intelligence in the future, they will seek to ban the use of the technology in the near future.

While blocking may prevent students from accessing powerful artificial intelligence on school or school devices, it is unlikely to prevent student users who use home network access. In the medium to long term, education departments may carefully accept the existence of artificial intelligence and adjust their curriculum accordingly.
