[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When the applicant uses / abuses ChatGPT for the essays and still get rejected, that will be poetic justice.

Also poetic justice…all the nubes claiming this is cheating, having their kids rejected…just for the colleges to expressly allow it within one or two more application cycles.[/quote]

Name calling doesn't negate that this is cheating.  Colleges may treat writing differently in the future (like bring back sat essay), but the current expectation is that the writing is the student's.

Stop denigrating people with integrity to justify cheating.  It's a poor excuse and makes you look like a self-serving parasite. [/quote]

So, if GA Tech is telling me I can use it today to generate ideas, edit my essay, make my essay better, etc…do I now have to somehow write a completely different common app personal statement for other colleges that are silent?

I don't think GT said full edit in the professional editor rewriting sense. They said something akin to using as a thesaurus. People who want to cheat out of writing are just wishful thinking there.

I have several friends who are tenured faculty, most at name schools acceptable to DCUM.

“Mass panic” is a real understatement as to how liberal arts faculty are reacting to AI essays.

Schools are spending MILLIONS on AI detectors and getting caught using AI to generate content is considered a serious plagiarism offense.

Spell check? Fine. Grammarly? Okay.

ChatGPT is auto failure of the class and possible sanctions.
