It would require lots of programming and prompt engineering know-how, but theoretically, yes! I’m currently using the API to program a prompt-chaining system making use of the semantic embeddings that can take any list of text sources, then use it to write an essay answering a specific question (and cite the sources accurately). I’m still a long way off though (at least from doing it efficiently), so really what GPT-3 is best for is aiding you in doing assignments. I would recommend the channel David Shapiro who does videos about this stuff.
On the one hand, if school motivates a pupil to program something like this and they figure out a way to automate e.g. TEFL answers, they’ve picked up enough from school to survive in the adult world, even if they only pass due to the AI.
On the other hand, if they know that what the AI produces is good enough to submit, then they probably also know the materials well enough to pass the old fashioned way.
At the same time, if they manage to get close with GPT-3, whether it’s results are good or not good enough to pass a test, they’re still ahead of the game and would probably do super well in the adult world especially with decent grades as well (passed the old fashioned way).
It seems worth adding a bit of old fashioned studying in the mix.

Interesting!

Absolutely. I think it’s important to challenge the current education system a bit though.
