    Absolutely, but that’s not what she’s saying. She’s saying that the products that tout the capability to detect the usage of LLMs to cheat on essays and the like are really rubbish and give a lot of false positives.

    She mentions that they’re particularly inaccurate when it comes to English-as-second-language speakers, meaning foreign/exchange students are more likely to get marked as cheaters even though they might not be.

    I think the issue is that our education system is dated. Grades in general aren’t effective measures of knowledge, and they suck as motivators.

    AI tools aren’t going anywhere so the education system will need to find a way of working with them. It’s time to modernise.

      “I’m a teacher and I approve this message” It’s simple: LLMs (mostly) spell the end of homeworks. Tests and exams in the classroom are the way to go.
