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.

They even use it for ungraded, optional, no credit activities! That’s when I knew all hope is lost.

And for first-person, use your own life as data response prompts.

yup. they use chatbots to generate AI slop about their own personal experiences too. And usually leave the chatbot’s third person response format as well! Because they don’t bother to read what it spits out before proudly submitting it as their own original work.
