No CHATGPT in Literature!
Reading bestamericanessays Best American Essays 2022, and one of the essays WAS DELIBERATELY WRITTEN BY CHATGPT as an ‘experiment’. I could see this essay as being a showcase at how bad chatgpt was but clearly there was not enough here to qualify as BEST American essay when the author did not write the majority of it? The author only wrote the prompts which were repeated through the entire story.
Author makes no meta commentary or analysis of Chatgpt's resposnes.
How did this qualify for inclusion in one of the country's premiere essay collections :
Majority written by chatpgt and falsified info.
Poorly written at that.
Repeating the same prompt over and over again for pages but slightly tweaking it? '
No commentary on chatgpt response, no mention of ethics related to chatgpt. The thesis is unclear.
(the rest of the essays are VERY good)
How could best American essays include this especially since LLMS are trained on copyrighted work??
