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.

Part of this thread was people talking about students using their phones in the back and TAs not caring enough to intervene. It seemed to me that your response was related to that but perhaps it was not.

    Fair enough. Although if the issue is the exam proctors not actually proctoring the exam, the medium in which it's taken won't matter.

    At least with computer tests there's software that lets the proctor see every screen at once. But cellphones are an issue either way.

    The best solution would be to have testing services handle it. But would cost way too much for any university to do.
