ChatGPT and the rise of generative AI: Threat to academic integrity?

Eke, Damian Okaibedi

Abstract

The emergence of OpenAI's ChatGPT has put intense spotlight on Generative AI (Gen-AI) systems and their possible impacts on Academic integrity. This paper provides an overview of the current arguments around ChatGPT and Academic integrity and concludes that although these technologies are capable of revolutionising academia, the way ChatGPT and other generative AI systems are used could surely undermine academic integrity. However, to ensure that the risks to academic integrity are mitigated for greater maximisation, institutional and multi-stakeholder efforts are required.
