Students are relying on AI so heavily that universities are being forced to fundamentally rethink how they grade their work.
England’s higher education regulator, the Office for Students, is warning universities that they may need to replace traditional take-home essays and open-book exams with supervised assessments that prevent students from relying on artificial intelligence to do their work.
AI-detection tools are too unreliable to consistently determine whether students have used the technology, the OfS said in a report published Wednesday.
Yeah, assuming they can pass the entrance exams. Can’t really have AI take your MCAT for you.
On the other hand, if someone can cheat their way through intro courses and still submit a competitive application with competitive test scores? They’re smart enough to get it done.
Those people who I’d do homework for? They usually started failing pretty hard around junior/senior level courses. That’s the problem with outsourcing your thinking. Most every professor knows what’s up when someone is submitting 100% homework assignments and getting 50-60% when exams roll around.
