Deviant acts in the use of ChatGPT: An analytical study of student behaviour

Abstract

Technological progress is indeed a necessity. However, the sophistication of existing technology is unfortunately not accompanied by the maturity of its users, especially students. Use ChatGPT in every task. Thus causing a decrease in creativity and a lack of originality in the work. The research method used is qualitative descriptive. Data were collected using participatory observation techniques, in-depth interviews, documentation, and focus group discussions. The results showed that the negative impact of using ChatGPT is over-reliance, which causes students to be unable to think critically, lack problem-solving skills, have decreased social interaction, and are vulnerable to receiving information bias. The treatment for students who are already addicted to using ChatGPT includes recognizing the signs of addiction that arise, collaborating with professional experts such as psychologists or counselors, training students to think critically and independently, and providing alternative activities that encourage them to participate in social activities. This research still needs improvement. So it needs some further development. These are some suggestions from this study: Investigate the psychological impact of students using ChatGPT, Design an Academic Curriculum by Collaborating with AI, and Develop an evaluation system that combines authentic tasks and the use of ChatGPT.

Investigating the Correlation between Different ChatGPT Versions and Task Initiation among Postgraduate Students: a Cross-Sectional Study

“…Yet, alongside these advancements, AI's role in academia is doubleedged, offering benefits in educational performance and workload management while promoting a dependency that could impede academic achievement (Cabrera, 2023). The introduction of AI tools, including ChatGPT, into educational environments extends their influence to psychological and cognitive dimensions, impacting not just academic performance but also critical thinking, memory, problem-solving skills, and social interactions (Bai et al, 2023;Purwasih & Sahnan, 2023;Deepthi & Jameela, 2023). These effects emphasize AI's dual capacity to enrich and potentially challenge students' cognitive and psychological health.…”
