Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I’m definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

    I did some programming assignments in a group of two. Every time, my partner sent me his code without further explanation and let me check his solution.

    The first time, his code was really good and better than I could have come up with, but there was a small obvious mistake in there. The second time his code to do the same thing was awful and wrong. I asked him whether he used ChatGPT and he admitted it. I did the rest of the assignments alone.

    I think it is fine to use ChatGPT if you know what you are doing, but if you don’t know what you are doing and try to hide it with ChatGPT, then people will find out. In that case you should discuss with the people you are working with before you waste their time.

      I’ve had partners like that in the past. If ChatGPT didn’t exist they would’ve found another way to cheat or avoid work.

      The type of partner who takes the task you asked them to complete, posts the task description on an online forum and hope someone gives them the answer.

        Yes but I think it is a bit different because it just lowers the bar for this a lot. You also really lose trust in everything once you realize that you have spent a lot of time interacting with and checking AI generated stuff without knowing.
