Funny you should say that. Google just announced today that they are giving all college students one year of free Gemini advanced. I wonder how much that will actually move the needle among the youth.

My guess is that they will use it and still call it "ChatGPT"...

  Pass the Kleenex. Can I get a Band-Aid? Here's a Sharpie. I need a Chapstick. Let me Xerox that. Toss me that Frisbee.

And every professor just groaned at the thought of having to read yet another AI-generated term paper.

  They should just get AI to mark them. I genuinely think this is one thing AI would do better than humans.

    Grading papers definitely requires intelligence.

      My partner marked a PHD thesis yesterday and there was a spelling mistake in the title. There is some level of analysis and feedback than an LLM could provide before a human reviews it. Even if it's just a fancy spelling checker.

        I'd like to burst into a post a number of the unbelievable akin mishandlings of academic tasks I was reported, but. I do have a number of prize-worthy anecdotes that compete with yours. Nonetheless. Let us fight farce with rigour. Even when the tasks are not in-depth, but easier to assess, you still require a /reliable evaluator/. LLMs are not. Could they be at least employed as a virtual assistant, "parse and suggest, then I'll check"? If so, not randomly ("pick a bot"), but in full awareness of the specific instrument. That stage is not here.

  Take-home assignments are basically obsolete. Students who want to cheat, can do so easily. Of course, in the end, they cheat themselves, but that's not the point.
