I love this AI cheating detection stuff.

Mostly because it really gets at the root of the issues in education.

Like, fine, you have made some system where cheating is impossible. Great.

But have your students learned anything?

If educators put in even a iota of effort into learning their students, then they know who is cheating and who isn't.

But if they put that same amount back into teaching, then everyone wins.

Education is not a contest with winner and losers.

(Yes, ok, you went to a bad school where it was a contest for your pre-med degree. Look where that has gotten US healthcare.)
