> Most people do view obtaining a degree as just a hurdle to getting a decent job, that’s just the economics of it.

Because those who recruit based on the degree aren't worth more than those who get a degree by using LLMs.

Maybe it will force a big change in the way students are graded. Maybe, after they have handed in their essay, the teacher should just have a discussion about it, to see how much they actually absorbed from the topic.

Or not, and LLMs will just make everything worse. That's more likely IMO.
