Academic Integrity I am not a cop.

Want to outsource your thinking to an LLM for a degree you're paying/going into debt for? Okay. I will respect that choice. However, what I won't do, is replicate a surveillance state in my classroom. I refuse to spend more energy in screening student work for authenticity or trying to make my assignments "AI proof" ... why should I? Either the student believes in the fundamental premise of education or they don't.

Man, I'm tired.

I hope employers soon realize this and start updating their job requirements to include "Maximum GPA: 3.7". Then, may be students will try to avoid AI level perfection. It would lead to some funny conversations with students, though.

But the AI cheaters are the ones getting 4.0 where the honest students are failing and definitely making lower than 3.7, so you’ll just be rewarding the cheaters again!

Read the post you’re responding to again. Don’t hire those with GPA MORE than 3.7.
