copy-pasting from an ai will not help students "get the gist of it". its a con enabled by teachers to get better scores and more funding.

If more than half of students at that school currently consider it cheating, then they may be aware of the methods used by their classmates. It is likely not being used to merely find and quote reference material for essays. The lure to cheat is too high with a younger generation brought up on social media, with zero attention span. It is being used for instant answers to Q and A styled homework, and even when it is being used to write essays, students will also use other AI to rewrite the entire output (or rewrite it themselves) in order to try and get around any form of algorithm detection by other technology. Students already use the internet to find leaked exam papers days before exams, so I would not be surprised if AI can help with that too. I believe future exams will be on a one on one verbal basis, with very little or nothing written down. Either that or the questions are even created by AI itself, but mere seconds before an exam.

AI AI AI we can only hear about this AI nowadays, what about our natural intelligence as human beings, I find it has been imposed on us thanks to all these web people who makes their fortune on our misery, because it's going to be a real misery on human spirits and creativity.

Typical old heads, a lot of us use it because we can get an explanation on math questions with out waiting on an email reply from the professor.
