Our analysis reveals that ChatGPT's ability to detect plagiarism and identify academic misconduct is a major strength, while its lack of contextual understanding and potential biases are identified as weaknesses and threats. There are several opportunities for ChatGPT to improve its role in promoting academic integrity, such as expanding its knowledge base and language understanding capabilities. Our analysis highlights the need for further research and development to improve the accuracy and reliability of ChatGPT in detecting academic misconduct and promoting ethical behavior in education. Ultimately, the responsible and ethical use of ChatGPT in academic integrity has the potential to benefit students and educators, and strengthen the integrity of the education system.
