ChatGPT and Beyond: The Generative AI Revolution in Education
Authors: Mohammad AL-Smadi
Abstract
The wide adoption and usage of generative artificial intelligence (AI) models, particularly ChatGPT, has sparked a surge in research exploring their potential applications in the educational landscape. This survey examines academic literature published between November, 2022, and July, 2023, specifically targeting high-impact research from Scopus-indexed Q1 and Q2 journals. This survey delves into the practical applications and implications of generative AI models across a diverse range of educational contexts. Through a comprehensive and rigorous evaluation of recent academic literature, this survey seeks to illuminate the evolving role of generative AI models, particularly ChatGPT, in education. By shedding light on the potential benefits, challenges, and emerging trends in this dynamic field, the survey endeavors to contribute to the understanding of the nexus between artificial intelligence and education. The findings of this review will empower educators, researchers, and policymakers to make informed decisions about the integration of AI technologies into learning environments.

Students' Voices on Generative AI: Perceptions, Benefits, and Challenges in Higher EducationCecilia Ka Yuk Chan, Wenjie Hu · 2023 · Computers and Society · Not summarized yet
Abstract
This study explores university students' perceptions of generative AI (GenAI) technologies, such as ChatGPT, in higher education, focusing on familiarity, their willingness to engage, potential benefits and challenges, and effective integration. A survey of 399 undergraduate and postgraduate students from various disciplines in Hong Kong revealed a generally positive attitude towards GenAI in teaching and learning. Students recognized the potential for personalized learning support, writing and brainstorming assistance, and research and analysis capabilities. However, concerns about accuracy, privacy, ethical issues, and the impact on personal development, career prospects, and societal valu…

Exploring User Perspectives on ChatGPT: Applications, Perceptions, and Implications for AI-Integrated EducationReza Hadi Mogavi, Chao Deng, Justin Juho Kim et al. · 2023 · Computers and Society · AI summary available
Abstract
Understanding user perspectives on Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education is essential for creating pedagogically effective and ethically responsible AI-integrated learning environments. In this paper, we conduct an extensive qualitative content analysis of four major social media platforms (Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, and LinkedIn) to explore the user experience (UX) and perspectives of early adopters toward ChatGPT-an AI Chatbot technology-in various education sectors. We investigate the primary applications of ChatGPT in education (RQ1) and the various perceptions of the technology (RQ2). Our findings indicate that ChatGPT is most popularly used in the contexts of higher education (24.18…

On the Educational Impact of ChatGPT: Is Artificial Intelligence Ready to Obtain a University Degree?Kamil Malinka, Martin Perešíni, Anton Firc et al. · 2023 · Computers and Society · AI summary available
Abstract
In late 2022, OpenAI released a new version of ChatGPT, a sophisticated natural language processing system capable of holding natural conversations while preserving and responding to the context of the discussion. ChatGPT has exceeded expectations in its abilities, leading to extensive considerations of its potential applications and misuse. In this work, we evaluate the influence of ChatGPT on university education, with a primary focus on computer security-oriented specialization. We gather data regarding the effectiveness and usability of this tool for completing exams, programming assignments, and term papers. We evaluate multiple levels of tool misuse, ranging from utilizing it as a cons…

Last Week with ChatGPT: A Weibo Study on Social Perspective regarding ChatGPT for Education and BeyondYao Tian, Chengwei Tong, Lik-Hang Lee et al. · 2023 · Computers and Society · AI summary available
Abstract
ChatGPT has piqued the interest of many fields, particularly in the academic community. GPT-4, the latest version, starts supporting multimodal input and output. This study examines social media posts to analyze how the Chinese public perceives the potential of ChatGPT for educational and general purposes. The study also serves as the first effort to investigate the changes in public opinion since the release of GPT-4. According to the analysis results, prior to GPT-4, although some social media users believed that AI advancements would benefit education and society, some believed that advanced AI, such as ChatGPT, would make humans feel inferior and lead to problems such as cheating and a d…

ChatGPT in education: A discourse analysis of worries and concerns on social mediaLingyao Li, Zihui Ma, Lizhou Fan et al. · 2023 · Computers and Society · AI summary available
Abstract
The rapid advancements in generative AI models present new opportunities in the education sector. However, it is imperative to acknowledge and address the potential risks and concerns that may arise with their use. We analyzed Twitter data to identify key concerns related to the use of ChatGPT in education. We employed BERT-based topic modeling to conduct a discourse analysis and social network analysis to identify influential users in the conversation. While Twitter users generally ex-pressed a positive attitude towards the use of ChatGPT, their concerns converged to five specific categories: academic integrity, impact on learning outcomes and skill development, limitation of capabilities, …

A Survey on ChatGPT: AI-Generated Contents, Challenges, and SolutionsYuntao Wang, Yanghe Pan, Miao Yan et al. · 2023 · Computers and Society · AI summary available
Abstract
With the widespread use of large artificial intelligence (AI) models such as ChatGPT, AI-generated content (AIGC) has garnered increasing attention and is leading a paradigm shift in content creation and knowledge representation. AIGC uses generative large AI algorithms to assist or replace humans in creating massive, high-quality, and human-like content at a faster pace and lower cost, based on user-provided prompts. Despite the recent significant progress in AIGC, security, privacy, ethical, and legal challenges still need to be addressed. This paper presents an in-depth survey of working principles, security and privacy threats, state-of-the-art solutions, and future challenges of the AIG…

How are these papers found?
We compare the title and abstract of this paper with those of every paper summarized on this site, and with the papers Semantic Scholar recommends, those it cites and those citing it (for a much-cited paper, its most recent citations and, from OpenAlex, the most cited ones). Among the prior work and the follow-ups, the papers that use each other in depth, a method it uses and the much-cited follow-ups come a little higher. The levels (very close, close, related) come from the similarity of the texts, not from a judgment of quality; * marks a paper without an abstract, compared by its title. The sentence under a paper is written by an AI from the two abstracts: check it in the papers. A paper marked not relevant by three readers leaves the list.
For now only among the papers summarized on this site: search again to add the prior work, the follow-ups and Semantic Scholar’s recommendations.
