The question of sophistication is difficult to pin down due to the rapid developmentof the technology, for within the first year of public access, the power of widely availablecommercial platforms like ChatGPT have continued to develop in power and sophistication withthe problems of hallucination and accuracy diminishing as many of the algorithms now haveaccess to the internet, thus further edifying the outputs generated by the AI.Despite these nascent discussions of student impacts, one issue missing from conversationsaround GenAI are the impacts they are likely going to have on how students develop
