AI Cheating in Education

is this because people will just use chatGPT to cheat?

You could even just set up a GAN to make the AI better at not being detected as something written by an AI, I don't see a good general solution to this, but I also see it as a non-issue - if students have better tools they should be able to use them, just like a calculator on a test - that's allowed on tests because you still need to understand the concepts to put it to use

If it's just one student, then I think you should just talk to them about it and verify. Education is not a 'gotcha' game. If you're in the US, these students are the ones paying a lot of money to get that learning and degree.If it's a lot of students, then you likely need to rethink using essays and the like. Not that they aren't useful when done honestl; they are incredible tools for having students learn.But the near future is only going to be filled with t

ChatGPT is both impressive and scary. We know how things work: there is no way to slow down this train. However it is already having an impact on things like education. Teacher don't have good enough tools to detect cheaters, and students are going to suffer because of that. Honest ones will be wrongly accused. Cheaters will get good grades. The only solution I see is to ban any graded homework.What will be the other impacts?

1. This is an arms race. You can build a generative AI that avoids generating text caught by the classifier.2. Maybe teachers will assign rare or even fictional topics that cannot be found in the AI training corpus. Maybe a teacher could use an AI to generate essay prompts that are hard for other AIs to write essays for.3. Is this a problem long term? If an AI can generate an essay that's indistinguishable from a human-generated one, then why do we need to learn how to write essays? M

In my experience as a TA, ChatGPT has leveled the playing field. Previously, some nationalities cheated significantly more often, but now almost everyone (at least 85 %, probably more) cheat with ChatGPT. There is not much point in providing homework assignments anymore.

Their approach is to bring maximum transparency into the process the student used to write the essay, rather than the final result.I don't really see how it's about an AI vs anti-ai arms race.It's not my company and I'm not responsible for selling it so I'm probably doing a poor job...But if you want to evaluate your students writing and ensure integrity and also provide them with longer windows to work on bigger writing assignments (and even allow them to use L

How about judging the content no matter which tools the students are using? If ChatGPT output cannot be distinguished from a student's output, then the respective profession / line of study is soon going to be obsolete anyway. If there is a difference (there should be one!), then the LLM is used as a tool, which should be allowed for most purposes. Universities don't disallow style and grammar correction software like Grammarly either.What I can see in the humanities at least i

IMO it's so easy to ChatGPT your homework that the whole education model needs to flip on its head. Some teachers already do something like this, it's called the "Flipped classroom" approach.Basically, a student's marks depend mostly (only?) on what they can do in a setting where AI is verifiably unavailable. It means less class time for instruction, but students have a tutor in their pocket anyway.I've also talked with a bunch of teachers and a couple admins

The author is doing nothing of the sort.Among other things, he's analyzing his students attitudes' re: AI and cheating with AI, and also comparing what they claim to feel vs what they actually do! It's mostly a reflection of what his students feel about the use of AI in English writing, not about calculators vs AI.It seems as if you're responding to the line you quoted (out of context) through your preconceptions of what the article is about instead of actuall
