From: Jason Koebler
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Texas Public Information Act, I hereby request the following records:
Public reports show that ChatGPT is a major topic of conversation at American public schools: https://nbc-2.com/news/local/2023/02/15/students-at-cape-coral-high-school-accused-of-using-artificial-intelligence-to-cheat-on-essay/amp/
Therefore, I hereby request the following records:
1) All instructional materials, presentations and presentation materials related to ChatGPT. This includes A) any notes taken during meetings that discussed ChatGPT and B) Any other documents related to ChatGPT including internal documentation, public relations materials, and executive summaries.
2) Any memos or communications sent to schools, administrators, teachers, parents, or students that mention "ChatGPT."
3) Any case studies, enforcement actions, contracts, or other documents mentioning ChatGPT
4) Any academic dishonesty policies that mention ChatGPT
5) To the extent possible, any emails and associated attachments that mention ChatGPT
To help limit the extent of the responsive documents, please limit search from Jan 1, 2023 through the time this request is processed. Please deliver these documents on a rolling basis as responsive documents are found. You can treat #5 (emails) as a separate request because I suspect there will be many more responsive documents there.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes. It will be used in the course of reporting for Motherboard, VICE's science and tech site (www.motherboard.vice.com).
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Jason Koebler
