Millie used the artificial intelligence software ChatGPT to appeal to York City Council over a wrongly issued parking ticket

A student has avoided paying a £60 parking fine by using the artificial intelligence chatbot ChatGPT. The clever software, which launched in November 2022, is designed to assist people with everyday tasks such as writing emails and text messages, and to help answer questions.

After she was slapped with a parking ticket, Millie Houlton, a 22-year-old from York, used the language tool to write a formal appeal to York City Council.
