love how every lecture we get a 15 minute psa to not use AI. Our professors are so so so annoyed at getting bullshit essays reached in
Reminded me of my software engineering lecture. We were encouraged to use ai during the exercises, since it's so "useful" at coding quickly, but it was disallowed in the exam
Fast forward to the exam, it is up there as one of the easiest exams I have ever written and still a large amount of people completely fail on the coding tasks
And I can not stress how easy the exam was, like the tasks were based on exercises we have already done. It was completely open book, so you could look at the old exercises and even look at your solutions for them and the grade distribution still looked like carnage for some reason
"some reason" your classmates never coded!
I mean yeah that's where it comes from, but like the tasks could have been solved by copy pasting your old solution and renaming the variables appropriately. It wasn't even a matter of "Do you know how to code". It was more like "Were you mentally present at any point during the exercises or the exam preparation" and the amount of people for whom the answer is no, because they just used ai while not thinking about the task in the slightest, was astonishing to me
Like a rate of 50% for a failing grade on an exam like this is idk. That's half the people, like if I chose a random person in my degree this would be their attitude to coding and learning in general
βThe AI just did what I wouldβve doneβ people need to see this. You fail to learn when AI does it for you.
