AmCham Shanghai's Education Committee will be hosting a session on April 27, from 4:00-5:30 PM, focused on the impact of Large Language Model-based tools, such as ChatGPT, on the education industry. This technology has brought about significant disruptions in various fields, including education. Educators from K12 schools and universities will be discussing the implications and opportunities presented by this development.


The session will commence with an exploration of the ways in which these tools have already impacted education, including both the potential benefits and risks involved. The discussion will then turn to the challenges that LLM-based tools like ChatGPT will bring to the current education system, prompting educators to reconsider their roles and traditional models of education.
