Using AI to Help Teach and Train Students in Physics

Since ChatGPT was made publicly available towards the end of 2022, there have been many opinions supporting and opposing its usage, especially in the arena of education. People supporting the utilization of ChatGPT typically focus on the beneficial effects such as convenience and unlimited availability while those opposing it are often concerned about the negative consequences, with a typical example being cheating with answers. Just as almost a known fact that no product in this world is faultless, ChatGPT is just such another new product added in the contemporary artificial intelligence (AI) prevailing era. The message to be shared in this talk is to advocate more on the beneficial side of AI rather than its negative aspect, and at the same time, how to find some balance between the two sides. In addition, discussion will be on how to respect and comply with AI guidelines set by an organization such as a school while teaching and training students to apply AI to maximize their study efficiency without getting bandaged by restrictions. Physics learning today is a perfect subject whose students can take advantage of any new equipment, devices, and programs such as AI developed out of new technologies, and both instructors and students should embrace the opportunities and actively immerse in the new tide. During the talk, preliminary result through AI enhanced teaching and training will be shared.
