[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stop pretending the AI bots can’t produce quality work.  Many heads of admission at the most elite colleges say it produces essays in the top 1% if you know how to train the AI.

Funny how everyone on DCUM thinks they are Shakespeare.[/quote]

I agree. Need to find some examples to show here.[/quote]

I listened to a podcast the other day where the guest was a professor and someone who studies AI. His prediction is that the college essay totally goes away, in short-order, due to the quality of AI essays. Additionally, he thinks that schools need to be moving a lot faster to change the way they teach to account for AI. It's not going away and it's time to reinvent the classroom experience to account for it.[/quote]

I hope he is right.  Between editors and AI, it is a completely uneven playing field, rife for abuse and cheating.  It is virtually meaningless.

What we need are nationwide, proctored essays where kids sit down in school and answer an essay question or two "live," in an in-person, classroom setting.  It could be incorporated into the Common App somehow.[/quote]

We just need AI graders...[/quote]
