No? Remember those 32 of 35 Students being provably caught just a few days ago?
Here is a link: https://news.slashdot.org/stor...

So 58'000 cheaters is quite plausible. Also note that these 58'000 students are only asked to prove their competence a 2nd time in person, they are not expelled or denied.

Yes. Parenting failure is pretty much in there. Good parents make sure to show and explain and demonstrate most common dangers to their kids. Going into nature unprepared certainly qualifies. Well, most parents these days do not have a lot of time for parenting and maybe should not have been parents in the first place.

Has nothing to do with AI.

I disagree. The root cause is not AI, but essentially mindless trust in computers. But, as LLM-type AI makes you able to get statements "from computers" on far more topics easily, LLMs make this problem worse.

And if one would ask AI, they most likely would get pretty solid hints what to do and what not.

Funny how you are hedging here and calling them only "hints". Shows a lot. And no, with the wrong query and just a bit of bad luck you can get very dangerous "advice" from LLMs.

Worse still is that studies show what we knew all along. Giving a laptop or iPad to every kid does not improve their education. In fact, the studies show them to be detrimental to the child's learning.

Yep. I had that suspicion 25 years ago when I was involved a related EU project. All the senior people with actual teaching experience involved though pretty much the same. Most of the others had a no-proof "Technology makes everything better!" mindset, which I found quite problematic. Turns out that intuition was pretty much correct and the senior folks with teaching experience had it all right. (I did not have a lot of teaching experience back then.)
