New Questions for Old Problems. Uses of Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT in UNTDF University Students

Abstract

This paper addresses the uses and incorporations of Artificial Intelligence in a group of students from the National University of Tierra del Fuego. AIs are present in different everyday devices where ubiquitous internet-based computing interacts with us. We focus on those AIs that offer us new possibilities for research, development and production in the academic field. That is, those artificial intelligences known as neural that allow us to interact in order to improve our searches and productions. In that sense, although there are developments on various platforms, this problematization focuses on the most well-known and widespread, the GPTChat. This platform is beginning to become a consultation source beyond taboos, and that even puts traditional search engines under tension. This aspect revitalizes old problems about the relationship with technology. When faced with the development and implementation of a device, suspicion arises regarding its potential, and consequently, resistance.
