‘But there is a difference between recognising AI use and proving its use. So I tried an experiment. … I received 122 paper submissions. Of those, the Trojan horse easily identified 33 AI-generated papers. I sent these stats to all the students and gave them the opportunity to admit to using AI before they were locked into failing the class. Another 14 outed themselves. In other words, nearly 39% of the submissions were at least partially written by AI.‘

Solution, begin requiring students to work inside a monitored room where they have to log in to access and have to write down everything by hand on paper that remains in the room. No electronics allowed inside, only notes regarding the research they may have done are allowed. These notes would have a similar process to be gathered, you'd have to register your access to the reference you are going to be sourcing, likely limited to those printed in the library, and save them there to be used when writing the report. Make them go through metal detectors on the way and get rid of any piece of electronics they could cheat off of.
Who am I kidding, Idiocracy seems to have been spot on.
Idiocracy made one critical mistake... the biggest idiots are the ones in charge. In idiocracy the president and his staff were actually far smarter and more dedicated to doing a good job than the fuckers currently in charge.
Were they, or were they simply more desperate because after centuries of mismanagement they no longer had the luxury of the inherited power, wealth, and resources they had relied on, being left with only the ineffectual slogans they had been brainwashed with instead?
I am currently at a university. Everything that is written is normally turned in through 'turn-it-in' that does all the checking. I get a percentage of quotes, plagiarism, and it scans references. They have also added in a preliminary AI scanner that tells 'possibility ' of ai writing.
One time i plagerized my name and page numbers according to turnitin
Lol. Sounds right. We see it as a percentage and it highlight what was plagiarized and the sources it is pulling it from, to include past university assignments. So yes, you can be hit for that - but then the human grader would see it as a false positive.
I mean, there are a lot of places that are way too happy about monitoring everything you do on a computer or phone, I doubt they'd want to part you from your digital shackles - they'll instead force you to use shitty monitoring apps to "ensure you don't cheat"
