In late 2022, OpenAI released a new version of ChatGPT, a sophisticated natural language processing system capable of holding natural conversations while preserving and responding to the context of the discussion. ChatGPT has exceeded expectations in its abilities, leading to extensive considerations of its potential applications and misuse. In this work, we evaluate the influence of ChatGPT on university education, with a primary focus on computer security-oriented specialization. We gather data regarding the effectiveness and usability of this tool for completing exams, programming assignments, and term papers. We evaluate multiple levels of tool misuse, ranging from utilizing it as a consultant to simply copying its outputs. While we demonstrate how easily ChatGPT can be used to cheat, we also discuss the potentially significant benefits to the educational system. For instance, it might be used as an aid (assistant) to discuss problems encountered while solving an assignment or to speed up the learning process. Ultimately, we discuss how computer science higher education should adapt to tools like ChatGPT.

翻译：2022年末，OpenAI发布了新版ChatGPT，这是一种先进的自然语言处理系统，能够在保持并响应讨论语境的同时进行自然对话。ChatGPT的能力超出预期，促使人们广泛思考其潜在应用与滥用问题。本研究评估了ChatGPT对大学教育的影响，重点关注计算机安全专业方向。我们收集了该工具在完成考试、编程作业和学期论文方面的有效性及可用性数据。我们评估了多种工具滥用程度，从将其作为顾问使用到直接复制其输出结果。在展示ChatGPT如何轻易被用于作弊的同时，我们也探讨了其可能为教育系统带来的显著益处。例如，它可作为辅助工具（助教）讨论解决作业时遇到的问题，或加速学习进程。最终，我们讨论了计算机科学高等教育应如何适应ChatGPT这类工具。
