Everyone Is Cheating Their Way Through College
Teachers have tried AI-proofing assignments, returning to Blue Books or switching to oral exams. Brian Patrick Green, a tech-ethics scholar at Santa Clara University, immediately stopped assigning essays after he tried ChatGPT for the first time. Less than three months later, teaching a course called Ethics and Artificial Intelligence, he figured a low-stakes reading reflection would be safe — surely no one would dare use ChatGPT to write something personal. But one of his students turned in a reflection with robotic language and awkward phrasing that Green knew was AI-generated.
“We’re talking about an entire generation of learning perhaps significantly undermined here,” said Green, director, technology ethics.
“It’s short-circuiting the learning process, and it’s happening fast."
