The LLMs de-value the viability of homework, and assignments consisting of at-home busywork. As an alternative, teachers will have to put more emphasis on proctored exams.
I say good riddance, that's exactly how it should be. At-home busywork is a scourge on especially K-12 students. Yet, every teacher has been loading their students up with homework, because that's their idea of what a "good teacher" is supposed to do.
The faster technology overcomes this problem, the better.

- andrewflnr 2y agoOne of the math teachers I hated most nevertheless had a very good homework policy: homework is optional, it's entirely for you to learn the material and pass the exams. I did it freestyle, no formatting, just doing the math.(I hated him because he made us memorize mathematical proofs verbatim for a third of our exam scores. A study in contrast, shall we say.)
