    But lets not kid ourselves that kids weren’t cheating their way out of homework since the start of time 😄

    I don’t mean to come off as too aggressive because I don’t think we’re really arguing with each other. But, I tend to see statements like this as a kind of handwaving apologia for something that, to be clear, real people are doing to us on purpose. The same way that people might lament the coming of a hurricane season; nothing really to be done about it.

      It can certainly be used for that, I will admit. But no that isn’t my intention. I hear many good stories on that front of teachers that have gotten a really good nose for AI and are using it as learning moments for their students. The world is filled with ways to cheat, and teachers are well aware of that. In the end, the process to unlearn them from cheating with AI is the same as cheating in conventional manners, is all I’m saying.
