202516 citationsOpen accessUniversity of Johannesburg

Abstract

The integration of ChatGPT and large language models (LLMs) into education has created new possibilities for personalized learning, tutoring, and automation of administrative tasks. However, these advancements also present ethical challenges. This paper critically examines the ethical implications of deploying ChatGPT in educational settings, with a focus on data privacy, the opaque nature of AI decision-making, and the risks of biased outputs. To address these issues, we outline actionable approaches, including Explainable AI (XAI) techniques and privacy-preserving strategies, aimed at enabling transparency and protecting student data. We also outline frameworks that support human oversight and governance to maintain trust and accountability in Al-driven educational tools.
