Machine learning tool used by people too lazy to do their actual job accuses everyone else of using machine learning tools.
Yeah that's pretty funny given the circumstances. "Our AI found your AI." Cool, so maybe none of this is working as intended. I'd be willing to bet nothing changes but the punishments for students.
Here's a clue:
If the paper isn't terrible, it was AI...
😋
My junior year of high school, I had to take a summer math class. The teacher was super lazy (cool though) and gave us all the actual final with the answers as a study guide (multiple choice scantron). I mentioned, to my group of about 5 kids, that I was sure this was the actual final and I had a plan to write the answers down on a little piece of paper and hold up fingers casually so everyone could cheat. 1 for A, 2 for B, etc.
Sure enough, on test day, it was the exact same test. I told everyone to take their time, don’t turn it in early, and ffs don’t get too many right. Everyone followed directions… except one. The moment I got done listing off the answers he stood up, walked over all proud, slapped it on the teachers desk, and started to walk out of the class.
“Wait,” the teacher said, casually. They started to grade it. 100% correct.
“You’ve got a C in the class and you expect me to believe you finished first and with every problem correct?”
Murmurs and giggles filled the room and the teacher walked to the board. Wrote a question from the test on it and said, “solve it.”
He failed, so he failed the final.
I got a C on the test.
The thing is, a competent teacher knows exactly what score every student will get before they even hand out the tests.
If you do slightly better than expected, they'll congratulate you. But if you blow it out of the park then they know you were cheating.
Ultimately it doesn't matter at all - because a teacher's job isn't to mark your test. Their job is to teach you. And if you get to the test without knowing any of the answers... then that's the real problem. Wether or not you cheat on the test is irrelevant.
Well, he was an idiot. He probably would have passed the test. It wasn’t that difficult anyway.
Wow, classic.

I was in Spain.
Murcia, then.
Nice. Then what's the Spanish equivalent?
I have only visited Rota. Neat place.
What is the Spanish equivalent to the typical American Teenager? Spanish Teenager.
