Comment University Professor Here, this is 100% true but (Score 0) 46
Worse....my online classes we have provisions in place to detect AI for papers along with plagiarism, but when it comes to online discussions, nearly 90% of the posts are all AI generated. You can tell because the posts are WAY longer than student posts two years ago, and they almost ALWAYS end with "overall", or "in conclusion" as well as sentences being really short. The issue is there is no provision in place to detect AI discussion posts and no policy either...you have entire classes of students communicating back and forth through AI, there is hardly an original post in the threads every week.
This I have personally witnessed at multiple universities and when I've inquired about enabling AI detection in the discussion threads I am met with silence.
