The solution seems to be rather easy: if *any* part of a student's assignment is discovered to be written by AI, then it's instant failure. No ifs, no buts.
I would even go as far as having them write any assignment in class, in front of a teacher, and with pen and paper only, with immediate and inappellable ejection from the school when found cheating.
Let the parents scream as much as they want. For example, every time I have to sit through a youtube video of an English mother-tongue speaker trying to read some written text, I shudder. They don't seem to learn to read in school. What do they do all day? Watch informational videos? And using proper grammar when writing seems to be frowned upon, as 90% of the comments I see are written by people who have no clue about, for instance, the difference between "their", "they're", "there"; or what "it's" actually means versus "its"; and on and on.
Now with AI the human race is going to really regress to the stage of savages; I guess it's easier to live, that way, and to hell with "an unexamined life is not worth living". Nowadays we are going back to "panem et circenses".
âoeIf simple folk are free from care and fear, simple they will be, and we must be secret to keep them so,â says Aragorn.
Ok, people who don't care about grammar and spelling (or literacy) can start screaming now. That seems to be their normal modus operandi, doesn't it? Scream until the other party gives up.
