B. Identify three problems associated with ChatGPT and/ other AI tools. (point form)
1. To be able to use ChatGPT you need to create a personal account on the ChatGPT
website which requires access to your email and your personal information. This raises
privacy concerns since we need to be careful about the kinds of data we give CahtGPT
access to.
2. ChatGPT encourages students to become lazy and rely on AI tools to write their
assignments and answer any questions rather than working hard on their own assignments
since it is easier to use ChatGPT than it is to work hard to search for answers and spend
long-time writing essays.
3. The information generated by ChatGPt is not always reliable because it is collected from
different websites on the internet and may or may not be correct information.

When we were students, we all had dreams of a bright and successful future, but for some
of us these dreams were dashed by inflation and the increased cost of living.
The article “I'm studying for my dream job. But inflation is shifting my priorities”, by
Kyla Cassandra Cortez (2023) highlighted the impact of inflation and rising living costs on
students.
Cortez (2023) discussed how inflation is forcing students like her to reconsider pursuing other
fields of study rather than their ideal ones to be able to obtain better careers. She highlighted how
inflation not only affected her financial situation but also influenced her decision to pursue
journalism while considering other conventional fields such as law and engineering. Kyla (2023)
also explained how the rising cost of living has put financial strain on her and put her in a
situation where she needs to choose between her financial stability and her university life
experience. In the end the author rais a huge concern about whether she should choose her dream
The author was able to convincingly imply that the inflation Canada is experiencing has had an
enormous effect on students who are now struggling financially due to rising living costs by
telling the audience about her challenges and sturgeels to reach her dreams and goals. She started

her articl by telling the audicne how difficult it was to convince her parents of her decision to
pursue journalism. Cortize (2023) claimed in her article that her parents were opposed to her
desire to become a journalist since they saw it as a dangerous job in the Philippines. By sharing
this personal experience with the readers, Cortize (2023) successfully built a connection between
her and the audience as many of the readers, whether they were parents or students, can relate to
the same situation. This generates feelings of compassion and empathy for the hardships
On the other hand, Cortize (2023) mentioned that some of her friends had the same experience as
hers and took the decision to change their programme of study to have better employment
chances. This was able to let the author question her decisions and whether it is better for her to
study in more traditional programs such as law or engineering. By sharing her friend’s
experience, the author was able to tap into the reader’s feelings of empathy since many people
may have the same experience which forced them to limit the achievement of their goals.
On the other hand, Cortize (2023) used logical appeals to convince the readers of
her idea that inflation forced her to reconsider her decision and choose between her dream job
and financial safety. Cortize (2023) appeals to cause and effect as she builds a strong connection
between the raising living cost which make it difficult to survive in Toronto as an undergraduate
student and her need to take unsafe decisions to save money. She used the example of getting
home late from a soccer game at her university and choosing to use public transit, which may not
be safe at night, to save money. In addition, she refers to an article from The Canadian
Press · which was posted in 2023 about how the economic crisis forced Postmedia Network
Corp. to cut off 11% of its editing team. By reffering to this articl,Cortize (2023) tried to support

her thesis with logical appeals in order to convince the audience that her decision to study for her
dream job in journalism is being influenced by the economic crisis and inflation. By using this
teqnique she was succussful to show responsible and practicla way of thinking and planning for
In conclusion, Kyla Cassandra Cortez's article, “I'm studying for my dream job. But
inflation is shifting my priorities”, was successful in highlighting the effects of inflation and
growing living costs on students' preferences and job choices. Cortez effectively supported her
argument and emphasized the challenges experienced by students like herself in following their
goals while managing financial restraints by appealing to logic and emotions. She was able to
connect with her audience and relate to their own shared experiences and provide evidence to
support her ideas. Finally, she was able to persuade the audience to evaluate their own decisions
