As an ESL instructor, I don't expect my students to have perfect English. So when I got the email below, I knew INSTANTLY it was from ChatGPT. Since the course I'm teaching is non-credit, it's not a big deal for me, but I DID tell the student that a shorter, simpler email that HE WROTE HIMSELF was preferable!

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to inform you that I will not be able to attend class tomorrow, July 6th, as I have an important matter that requires my presence elsewhere.

I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and I kindly request your permission to take a one-day leave of absence. I assure you that I will make every effort to catch up on any missed assignments or class material upon my return.

If there are any specific instructions or materials I should be aware of during my absence, please let me know, and I will ensure to follow up accordingly.

Thank you very much for your understanding and support.

Best regards,

ChatGPT has been an invaluable source of assistance in helping me make captivating captions for my Before and After pictures posted on Facebook. (advertising)
Its incredible capabilities have consistently amazed me as it effortlessly generates engaging and creative captions that perfectly complement my photos. My posts have received unprecedented attention and interaction from followers. Its ability to understand the nuances and context of the images has allowed me to express the transformation captured in the pictures, enabling me to convey the story behind each change with precision and flair. ChatGPT's contributions have significantly elevated the impact of my posts, making it an indispensable tool.

In English class, we are now required to do everything on paper in class in front of the teacher. Any work done at home will not be counted, because they will assume you used ChatGPT. You have maybe a week of work days, so 5 hours split up, to get your plan, research, draft, editing, and final draft done. If you are absent, then oh well you just have to work faster. All the while the rest of the class is chatting with each other and the teacher. I've never been able to work like this. In the past, I spend those 5 days writing my draft. Once I get home the day before it's due, I spend 7 hours at the computer rearranging and rereading my writing to make sure it flows correctly, and making sure my evidence makes sense. Since I could not do that this year, I felt ashamed with everything I turned in. I've always been slow with my writing, so I don't have time to check over what I wrote, and even had to turn my rough draft in as my final. Then once you account for the days I was gone for doctors appointments and sports, I had maybe half as much time as everyone else. There was one time I had a breakdown in the middle of class because of it, causing me to have to go to the bathroom, so I had even less time. From what I could tell, I wasn't the only one struggling with this system. Each essay was around 10% of our final grade. Most people who I knew were working the entire class were asking for more time, but because of the policy, the teacher was not allowed to give it to them. And since we were upperclassmen, there was a no late work policy. You turn it in as it is or you get a zero. It's a miracle I actually passed that class.

Sorry for ranting a bit.
