I Set A Trap To Catch Students Cheating With AI. The Result Was Deflating (infosec.pub)

‘But there is a difference between recognising AI use and proving its use. So I tried an experiment. … I received 122 paper submissions. Of those, the Trojan horse easily identified 33 AI-generated papers. I sent these stats to all the students and gave them the opportunity to admit to using AI before they were locked into failing the class. Another 14 outed themselves. In other words, nearly 39% of the submissions were at least partially written by AI.‘

This seems pretty fair and reasonable, although, we should ask why people do this in the first place? Why is there so much pressure to get good or decent grades? If you are just going to college to get a degree and all you want to do is pass, then why go at all?

College is a broken system right now. If things continue the way they are going, people will just learn how to use AI tools and go find a job. They don't even need to think for themselves, they can just have a computer do it for them.

If you are just going to college to get a degree and all you want to do is pass, then why go at all?

While I'm about a decade older than the current attendees, "go to college or your life will be terrible" was a persistent and unified message we were forcefed from a very young age. A college degree was billed as a checkpoint to entetr real adult life.

With that in mind, and another 13 years of compulsory education behind us, why would anybody see college as an opportunity instead of a barrier?
