Universities provide the AI to students. We have CoPilot in our 365 and the Ed majors get free AI crap all the time. Hard to make drugs illegal when you're the dealer
This. It's extremely frustrating, AI can be a 24/7 tutor, but too many students use it to do their work instead.
We have to really rethink how and what we teach, and how we evaluate. Scoring (non-handwritten) homework is pointless, even contra-productive (because it incentivizes cheating, even for the students who don't want to, just to not be outscored by the cheaters). Hand-written homework means the students at least have to have read the work once...
And soon, with AI glasses, even in-classroom tests will be difficult.
