Legal and ethical considerations regarding the use of ChatGPT in education

Abstract

Artificial intelligence has evolved enormously over the last two decades, becoming mainstream in different scientific domains including education, where so far, it is mainly utilized to enhance administrative and intelligent tutoring systems’ services and academic support. ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence-based chatbot, developed by OpenAI and released in November 2022, has rapidly gained attention from the entire international community for its impressive performance in generating comprehensive, systematic, and informative human-like responses to user input through natural language processing. Inevitably, it has also rapidly posed several challenges, opportunities, and potential issues and concerns raised regarding its use across various scientific disciplines. This paper aims to discuss the legal and ethical implications arising from this new technology, identify potential use cases, and enrich our understanding of Generative AI, such as ChatGPT, and its capabilities in education. The paper is part of the Proceedings of the 1st International Conference of the Network of Learning and Teaching Centers in Greece: Transforming Higher Education Teaching Practice
