I let ChatGPT take my final algorithms exam
- ftxbro 3y ago> Every single student in the morning section of my class scored higher on the final exam than [GPT], which only managed a C-minus with a score of 72.5. My class average was in the mid-80s. In my afternoon section, and facing a different set of final exam problems, [GPT] fared somewhat better, but still scored below the mean in the bottom third of the class—the equivalent of a C-plus.
- tkgally 3y agoAn article by a computer-science teacher published in August 2023 should specify the LLM used. Was the author using the free version of ChatGPT? If so, did he run the same questions by GPT-4, Claude 2, or any of the other LLMs now available? Would those results also leave his students “thrilled and relieved that their skills (for which they pay good tuition dollars) outshined the shiny new kid on the block”? Or, maybe, is the feel-good ending of this story not so justified after all?
