ChatGPT is trained to create content for essays, describe historical events, provide answers and generate working programming code. The outputs in ChatGPT can resemble human content (Marusenko, 2023). A study by Herbold et al.2023 revealed that content generated by ChatGPT generated essays that were structured and were of a better quality. This finding implies that ChatGPT could be used as an adjunct for writing essays, assignments and dissertations.
