And any teacher who gives referrals for papers that ARE flagged are likely to get their asses hand to them, cause the AI checkers are more BS than the AI papers being turned in lmao

Yup, at the end of last year I had multiple cases of obvious AI use but the course coordinating professor was just like: we can't 100% prove it so don't bother.

Yea. I wouldn’t worry that much. Any students who use AI to shoe in all their learnings are going to crumple sooner or later. What they gonna do once employers factor this in and say start using paper based interviews so you have to demonstrate technical skills? Anyone who overly rely on this are going to shoot themselves in the foot very soon when they graduate and have nothing in their brains. 4 years is a lot of time to build foundational knowledge. And a lot of time to build nothing. It WILL show. And they will have no one to blame but themselves.
The ones that will come out on top are the ones who put effort and use AI to enrich their learnings.

I find it fascinating that they posit teachers don’t know, but can come up with a suspiciously specific number of 94% goes undetected. That’s some magical data collection there if these guys have figured out how to reliably prove a negative

How much would you need to be paid to care? Because it's a pretty big deal if college becomes a place where you pay ~100k for a piece of paper and you've learned nothing. These are supposed to be our new doctors, scientists, engineers...
