   Chat GPT Has Colleges in Emergency Mode to Shield Academic Integrity



Colleges around the country have been holding emergency meetings of their honor code councils or other committees that govern student cheating.


The reason: a whole new kind of cheating that is suddenly possible, thanks to a new AI tool called Chat GPT. The technology, which emerged just a couple of months ago, can answer just about any question you type into it, and can adapt those answers into a different style or tone on command.

At Texas State University, for instance, professors across the campus began emailing the honor code council with cries for help.

“So many professors right now are struggling with burnout and disengagement and so many

 other things already, that even those that embrace paradigm shifts are at minimum sighing—ugh, this is another thing for me to pay attention to,” says Rachel Davenport, a senior lecturer in biology at the university who serves as vice chair of the honor code council.

He was telling me about how he’s starting to use AI tools with his students that can turn code written in one programming language into code in another language. It’s called GitHub Copilot, and it’s kind of like Chat GPT but for computing.

4th Edition of International Academic Meet on 24-25 February 2023, Netherland.

Using plasma technology to recycle CO₂ from steelmaking

Plasma is all around us, comprising 99% of the visible universe, including the stars at night and the branch of lightning we see cracking open the sky. Researchers are using the power of this superheated matter for everything from making computer chips to healing wounds. And in Belgium, three companies are collaborating on a world-first technology: a plasma reactor that turns captured CO₂ into carbon monoxide (CO) for steel and chemical production. The process holds promise for decarbonizing steelmaking. The role of CO₂ recycling The steel sector creates more CO₂ than any other heavy industry and is considered challenging to electrify. This is because traditional steelmaking in blast furnaces uses coal as both a source of heat and, in the chemical process, as a reductant for converting iron ore to elemental (‘pig’) iron. While the sector looks to future-proof with technologies such as electric arc furnaces and direct reduction of iron ore with hydrogen, it is looking to CO₂ capture, ut...

  WhatsApp Chat GPT Integration via GitHub Project Lets Users Add AI to Conversations: Details WhatsApp is arguably the world's most popular messaging service, and the Meta-owned messaging service also offers a version of the app for businesses that supports basic automated responses. On the other hand, Chat GPT, the wildly popular chatbot from San Francisco startup Open AI has seen users cross the 100 million mark in record time. Developer Daniel Gross has developed an open source integration called WhatsApp-GPT, which is  hosted  on GitHub. Written in Python and the Go programming language (Golang), the service must be run via the terminal (command line) and requires a  WhatsApp  account registered with a phone number. The chatbot will be run in a separate browser window in order to respond to chats, according to the developer.  The readme file for the project states that users must run two scripts, one in Golang and a sever script in Python. They wi...

Highway technology

 Highway technology New technology that monitors commercial vehicles will improve safety for local residents and drivers on Highway 5A. Weigh-in-motion and automatic vehicle-identification systems will monitor commercial vehicles at highway speeds using sensors built into and above the highway. The sensors will measure real-time safety and vehicle data, such as weight, height and tire conditions, and compare the data against enforced standards.    Commercial vehicle data will be relayed directly to mobile Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement officers in the area, enabling more efficient intervention and enforcement of safety standards. Quick Facts: The new virtual system on Highway 5A will provide information about all commercial vehicles that pass whether they are enrolled in the Weigh2Go program or not. Known collectively as Weigh2GoBC, the ministry has established a network of 12 weigh-in-motion and automatic vehicle-identification technologies that check vehicle ...
