Previously, AI had been a niche interest amongcomputer scientists, data scientists, and the like, or it had been a recurring (usually hostile)feature of science fiction. Suddenly, ChatGPT was able to make pertinent responses to questionsand even to write computer programs. ChatGPT was soon passing medical and bar exams

an AI-powered tool known as ChatGPT (short for Chat Generative Pretrained Transformer) chatbot.Basically, a chatbot is a computer program that simulates and processes human conversation (eitherwritten or spoken), allowing humans to interact with digital devices as if they were communicating with areal person. Even though the launch of ChatGPT was not felt by the common public, the technical circleknew about its inauguration, and the media space was flooded with shocked reactions.Anyone can open the ChatGPT program and type in the word or phrase about something he/she wants toknow, then the ChatGPT is going to spit out a short or long essay or summary of what is being asked.Suppose a student is asked to submit a report or an essay on a
