@kcarruthers@infosec.exchange Don't you think that AI will have more negative effects to education institutions and examinations boards?

@kcarruthers@infosec.exchange Can't fake a Viva voce exam. (Yeah, it takes resources, and not appropriate for some undergraduate courses, but for higher degrees, and some subjects?) [But what do I know, I am not in the uni sector! I did have to do vivas for some subjects in undergrad subjects because I had old fashioned lecturers, who believed in them.]

@kcarruthers@infosec.exchange UK regulator doesn’t realise how bad traditional exams & in-person presentations are… They certainly favour a particular brand of neurotypical. Universities need to work out if they are trade schools teaching skills for jobs, in which case well AI is going to be part of those jobs so why discourage it, or are they teaching the art of learning? If the latter, maybe they need to convince the students that using AI to do their learning for them is like using a forklift to lift weights at the gym…
