• 摘要： Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3（GPT-3）是人工智能领域中的新产物。本项目基于GPT-3，对人工智能工具与英语写作水平和创造力之间的联系进行一定的探索，开展了一项包含15名被试的实验，被试在两次议论文写作中分别进行人工智能辅助和无辅助写作。实验后，我们对被试开展了问卷调查和访谈，并从语法搭配、文章结构、论点新颖性、论证充分性和语句合理性五个方面对文章评分。实验结果表明，语法搭配一项在辅助后有了显著提高（p=0.0062），其余方面虽均有提高，但未达到显著水平，这表明人工智能工具辅助对英语写作水平和创造力有一定的积极作用，能给未来写作发展研究带来一定的启发。
• Abstract: Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3 (GPT-3) is a relatively new artificial intelligence model with powerful functions. This project was an attempt to use GPT-3 in English (as a second language) writing and integrate artificial intelligence tools into instruction. It also explored the relationship between artificial intelligence tools and English writing proficiency together with creativity. An experiment involving 15 subjects was carried out on two Saturdays. The subjects performed two argumentative writing tasks, one with artificial intelligence assistance and the other without. After the experiment, they were asked to complete two questionnaires and one interview. Their writings were scored from five aspects: grammar and collocation, argumentative structure, argument novelty, proof adequacy, as well as lexical and syntactic use. The result showed that grammar and collocation improved significantly after the AI assistance (p=0.0062), and the other aspects, though not reaching the significant level, also improved to different degrees. This suggested that artificial intelligence assistance had a positive effect on English writing proficiency and creativity to some extent, which could inspire the following studies in relevant fields.
