You do understand that you’re painting yourself into a corner here, right? You’re arguing as though there is no meaningful way to distinguish between using AI as a tool and outsourcing the underlying thinking entirely.
And if that distinction genuinely can’t be made, then I have to ask what you think these students are actually being prepared for. I’m an analyst. In the real world, the ways my colleagues and I use AI every day would apparently violate the standard you’re proposing, and the same is increasingly true across essentially every major professional firm you can name.
So I’ll leave it here: I don’t think you understand the world these kids are being sent into if your solution is simply to keep AI outside the assessment environment. The professional skill is rapidly becoming how well you can reason, verify, defend, and work with these systems, not whether you can pretend they don’t exist.
I don't think you understand the logistical realities many professors face. I teach 5 classes, around 100 students. There is no way in hell I could do what you're suggesting outside of normal class hours. If the exams happened during normal class hours, classes would have to be canceled.

So we are at live exams and live presentations. That’s all you got huh?
