Abstract:

The relationship between ChatGPT and basic education poses a dual challenge: the challenge ChatGPT presents to basic education, and the challenge basic education presents to ChatGPT. Regarding the challenge that ChatGPT poses to basic education, it brings about a subversive and systemic change to the “basic” of basic education, which is both basic and systemic. As for the challenge that basic education presents to ChatGPT, it requires a reverse thinking process to answer three fundamental questions. Firstly, ChatGPT has changed everything about basic education, but can basic education change ChatGPT? How can ChatGPT be changed? Secondly, what kind of technological changes and ChatGPT can meet the needs of basic education and conform to the laws of basic education? Thirdly, can basic education reform change and even subvert the technological changes represented by ChatGPT? The most fundamental way of subversion is to “legislate” the use of ChatGPT in basic education, establish laws for education, including educational values and educational thinking.

Key words: ChatGPT, AIGC, basic education, basic, subversion, reset
