CAN CHATGPT BE USED FOR SOLVING ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
Abstract
In this research we have conducted empirical study to evaluate the capabilities of OpenAI’s chat bot ChatGPT for automated software code generation and programming numerical methods for solving various types of differential equations. We have tested the ChatGPT for analytical as well as numerical solution of first and second order ordinary differential equations. Obtained results suggest that ChatGPT is a promising AI tool for programming numerical algorithms and solving differential equations. However, there are still some limitations and challenges of using AI for numerical solution generation, related to the potential biases in the algorithm, as well as need for large amount of high-quality training data. However, as AI technology continues to develop, it is likely that the use of AI for programming will become more prevalent and effective in the future.
