Why doesn't ChatGPT have a homework mode with assignment-specific rules?


The teacher would specify what sorts of responses are allowed for each assignment.

For example, grammar help could be allowed, but not idea-generation help.

ChatGPT could even fingerprint the output with the assignment code.

Education still in the "denial" phase of LLM. Teachers use it, students use it, neither are willing to admit they use it. After a couple of years, maybe reality will take hold and there will be education specific LLM tools. There probably is now, but adoption will be slow.

ChatGPT is just a chatbot app, not the actual tech. The underlying tech is LLM models. There are a plethora of them at this point. They are being used for app-specific features all over the place. If you think a specific app should exist, feel free to create it.

So what's to prevent a student from using the ChatGPT non-homework mode to do homework?
