At this point the cat is out of the bag, I'm doing uni currently and have used ai to assist, though I've only used the ai to help me understand topics, or asked it to give me practise questions, never given it an assignment question or asked it to gen my answers for me.
As a sort of personal tutor it can be really great. I was thinking about how you can try to encourage students to use it without cheating, and the only thing that came to me was if the education system maintained its own "virtual tutor" ai, one that was specifically designed to prevent cheating and encourage ethical use.
Not sure though, it's a tough problem to deal with, I guess the other option is just more controlled tests, which no one likes.
