I use LLMs to automate boring tasks or generate starting points, but in my experience, i can't trust them to generate code that I'd be proud to share. If I use the code they spit out, I'm always adapting or rewriting it to meet my standards. I find they better at explaining code than generating it.. Anyway...
How will these students evaluate if the code they have generated is up to scratch?
You kind of have to have been a good coder to know what good code looks like.
I know, I know, another AI will be used to review the code...
Something feels a bit off here to me.
I'm sure I will be flamed.
