What is there to teach? It's conversational. If you can write coherently, you can use GPTs. Someone in the English department should leverage "AI" hype to get more funding.

Expectations and limitations. IMO it is important to teach people what it actually does and that it can generate false statements as well as what sorts of questions are more likely to lead to false statements. It is a tool, and like any tool it has incorrect ways to use it. Even if it seems simple from the outset.

Oh shit, I remember taking a short course on research in college. The necessity of parsing your sources were a big topic, with an entire section on Wikipedia and social media. AI is gonna be the biggest revision to that course and academia in general yet.
