Some Mad Genius Put ChatGPT on a TI-84 Graphing Calculator
SMRTR summary
A YouTube creator named ChromaLock has modified a TI-84 graphing calculator to connect to ChatGPT, potentially enabling students to cheat on tests. The custom hardware modification, called "TI-32," uses a $5 Wi-Fi microcontroller and allows users to type questions and receive live responses on the calculator screen. ChromaLock developed custom software and additional cheating tools, including an image browser and app browser for accessing pre-prepared visual aids and cheat sheets. The device reportedly bypasses common anti-cheating measures, but using it during tests would likely violate academic integrity rules. A video demonstrating the modification is available.
