Only if students are also allowed to submit essays generated by a computer.
- phaus 14y agoThis is an interesting idea. If you had access to the grading algorithm's source code, wouldn't it be easy to randomly generate essays that always score 100?
- dalke 14y agoI don't see why. The code could be very complicated to understand, or the grading mechanism could be hard or impossible to reverse. (Just like cryptographic hashes.) Better would be access to the training corpus. Then use that to train, say, a Markov generator, and have it replace words from a thesaurus, in hopes of bypassing a similarity detector.
