What’s the point of learning proper English when chatgpt can do your homework…

ChatGPT has no implications for high-school English classes, if they are taught properly - ie, with the goal of teaching English literature and composition. If they're taught with the goal of assigning grades to students, then sure, ChatGPT could be a problem.

In high school we could pay the smart kid or someone’s older sibling to write a paper for you.
ChatGPT is amazing but getting someone else to do your work is not novel.
I’m also quite certain schools will implement an AI-detection mechanism, and wouldn’t be surprised if OpenAI were to expose that as a product offering.

It seems the main problem we are trying to solve with writing is communication of ideas in a coherant fashion.
There will be a few different types of Students using chatGPT. Those blatantly cheating and just turning in blindly these works.
Those who have a hard time putting their ideas to page, but when asked can talk through their ideas.
A third group may arise, those who cheat blatantly, but then parrot what they used.
What am I saying here though, oral exams will separate these groups. Identifying what group the pupil is in helps understand how to actually help them progress.
My bias for this idea comes from my mother is a retired college professor and gave oral exams for two decades with large success in weeding out those who couldn't formulate ideas of their own.
