Risks of employing generative AI applications (ChatGPT) in education and mitigation approaches: Perspectives from the faculty members at the college of basic education in Kuwait

Abstract

The study aimed to identify the main risks of using ChatGPT by students at the college of basic education in Kuwait in their education, and to understand ways to mitigate these risks from the perspective of the faculty members at the college. The descriptive survey method was used to achieve the research objectives, and a questionnaire was prepared that included two main axes: the risks of using ChatGPT and ways to address them. The questionnaire was applied to a sample of 156 faculty members. The results revealed a high degree of agreement among the sample members on the significant risks resulting from the imprudent use of ChatGPT by students, as well as a high level of agreement on ways to mitigate these risks. Furthermore, the results showed no significant differences in the sample’s estimations of these risks and ways to address them based on gender, academic degree. The study concluded with several recommendations, including the need to establish ethical standards for the use of artificial intelligence (ChatGPT as a model) in education and to organize training courses on the prudent use of ChatGPT in education.
