Deepwater Asset Management managing partner Gene Munster is astonished at the widespread use of artificial intelligence among high school students <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35820744/google-now-has-ai-specifically-for-teens-with-guardrails-to-keep-it-safe">for cheating</a> but had his take on the issue that fetched a nod from Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.
What Happened: On Monday, Munster&nbsp;took to X, formerly Twitter,&nbsp;and noted that while cheating has always been around, the rate of efficiency of it &#8220;exponentially increasing with generative AI.&#8221;
He then shared his insights after talking to one high school student and it included the usage of AI in writing papers which Munster deemed &#8220;out of control,&#8221; lack of concerns surrounding AI hallucinations, reduced time spent on homework, students finding workarounds to use platforms like ChatGPT and different perception toward what can be called cheating.

This Was Meta CEO&#8217;s Thought Process</a>
Munster also acknowledged that high-school students know third-party tools that can make the AI-generated language undetectable.
However, despite this, Munster believes that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35820744/google-now-has-ai-specifically-for-teens-with-guardrails-to-keep-it-safe">students using these tools</a> are on the right track. He argues that embracing AI is essential for future job market success, not just for information workers but also for skilled labor.
&#8220;Initially I was shocked at hearing how widespread generative AI is being used in school. After reflecting on it, I landed on the view that the students using these tools are on the right track,&#8221; he said. 
Adding, &#8220;You have to embrace these tools to have a seat in the job market down the road. And it won&#8217;t be just information workers, skilled labor will undoubtedly need to leverage AI to stay relevant.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The use of AI in education has been a topic of concern and debate. A&nbsp;survey&nbsp;conducted in 2023 found that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/23/07/n33393806/back-to-school-survey-44-of-teens-likely-to-use-ai-to-do-their-schoolwork-for-them-this-school-yea">44% of teens were likely to use AI</a> to do their schoolwork, with 60% considering it cheating. This raised ethical concerns and the potential for a lack of learning in subjects where AI was used.
Later in the same year, it was found that OpenAI&#8217;s AI-powered chatbot, ChatGPT&#8217;s usage witnessed an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34750438/chatgpt-sees-major-uptick-as-schools-resume-homework-help-or-cheating-aid">increase after schools resumed</a>. At the time, it was reported that there was a significant decline in usage over the summer and it was possibly because many students found ChatGPT particularly useful for research on homework assignments.

Almost everyone has spare change jangling in their pockets or lying forgotten in drawers and so did I. After years of burgeoning wallets and coins tucked away in drawers, I decided to start a Penny Jar. What if you too could turn that overlooked nuisance into a powerhouse of benefits? Starting a penny jar might seem like child&#8217;s play, but it&#8217;s an underrated practice that can teach anyone young or old about savings and wealth building.
1. Boosting Financial Awareness
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-303941" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060904/image-161.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Collecting pennies might feel trivial, but it&#8217;s a simple act that can significantly heighten your financial awareness. Watching your jar slowly fill up makes you more conscious of your spending and saving habits. It&#8217;s a visual and tangible form of money management that can teach valuable lessons about budgeting and financial planning.
2. Emergency Rainy-Day Fund
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-303942" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060916/image-162.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Ever find yourself scrambling for a few dollars for unexpected expenses like parking or a tip? A penny jar can become a handy emergency fund for these small, yet urgent, expenditures. Over time, those pennies add up, and it&#8217;s always a relief to have a little extra cash on hand when you need it most.
3. Reducing Clutter
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-303945" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060926/image-163.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Instead of letting loose change clutter your home or weigh down your purse, consolidate it in a penny jar. This not only tidies up your space but also helps you reclaim those forgotten coins that otherwise might have been lost or thrown away.
4. Teaching Tool for Kids
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-303947" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060944/image-164.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
A penny jar is a fantastic way to teach children about money. It&#8217;s a hands-on educational tool that can help kids understand the value of saving. Plus, it&#8217;s exciting for them to see their money grow over time, which can encourage a lifelong habit of saving.
5. Unexpectedly Fun Hobby
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="585" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165-1024x585.png" alt="" class="wp-image-303948" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165-1024x585.png 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165-300x171.png 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165-768x439.png 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165-1536x878.png 1536w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/23060949/image-165.png 1792w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Who knew saving pennies could be a hobby? For some, the thrill of finding and adding new coins to their collection can be genuinely enjoyable. It&#8217;s a quest to see how much you can save and how full you can get your jar. Plus, it&#8217;s always a pleasant surprise to count up the total and see how all those little contributions have added up.
