Right. But what I mean is if the final evaluation will require an in-person discussion, then couldn't we skip the text generation step, and just have the discussion? Homework as a tool to make students think needs to be drastically different, since students will always find loopholes to avoid it, and we can't evaluate it in isolation anymore (i.e. a teacher can no longer grade it on its own).

Doing live discussions obviously requires much more time and effort, but it is also much more engaging than doing homework, so the chance of actually learning something is higher.

There's also an argument to be made that homework in general isn't conducive to learning, and that education should take place primarily in schools. When you consider how much future generations will rely on AI in their everyday lives, this argument becomes even more compelling.

So I think this is our chance to drastically change how we think about education, rather than try to shoehorn a groundbreaking technology into our outdated methodologies.
