They do not even provide attribution to using AI, yet it is beyond obvious. So, so much cheating and toggling over to AI on tests. Even some peers are turning in the cheaters. They have lost motivation to even want to try to learn. It’s just a quick off ramp to hand in the next assignment with only about 10% of the kids desiring to really learn the material themselves.

Source please.

Omg people like you are obnoxious. Yale students are like all other students. AI has been used for excessive cheating the past two years- if you don’t believe that, you must also believe every student ever is following honor code. Go look at the many professor substacks complaining about the difficulty of grading work when much of it is likely ai slop

Great podcast episode talking about use of AI in law school / legal education but it more broadly applicable to college, as well. Discusses an interesting study that parses and evaluates different uses of AI and provides some much-needed nuance:

No need to learn ai in college. It is made to be user friendly. You can learn iy anytime but its hard to evaluate its output if you dont know real math and writing etc. So focus on that in college. Use ai on ypur job.
