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.

I don't understand why they ever stopped to grade with supervised assessment. Before AI they could get someone else to do the work for them. I don't get it. It's such an obvious and simple solution to AI cheating.

People who cheat are always going to find a way, but there's still value in making it less convenient. If nothing else, a person has to learn more about real-world maneuvering if forced to get creative with it.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
