In 20 years, the education system hasn't adapted to the changes brought about by Google, and now faces a new challenge: ChatGPT. This tool doesn't just answer straightforward questions; it can solve even complex and unconventional problems. This poses a serious challenge for the education system. If students start using ChatGPT to obtain ready-made answers, and teachers only analyze these answers, we risk significantly reducing students' critical thinking and creativity. As a result, we'll create an overly comfortable environment that doesn't require a deep understanding of the subject matter. True learning occurs when students are faced with tasks that require effort and independent thinking, rather than simply searching for information.
