🧀

Victoria Livingstone, an experienced educator, quits teaching due to challenges posed by generative AI, like ChatGPT, which led students to rely on AI for writing tasks, bypassing the learning process associated with writing. Despite her attempts to incorporate AI critically in her curriculum and highlight its limitations, she found students were not willing to endure the discomfort of developing writing skills and preferred the ease of AI tools.

  • Livingstone holds a doctorate in Hispanic literature.
  • She has been a Fulbright scholar in Brazil.
  • Taught at a technical college to doctoral students.
  • ChatGPT and other tools led to student reliance on AI.
  • Livingstone has managed MLN, a peer-reviewed journal.
