We haven't had LLMs that long. Are people seriously already forgetting the concept of learning skills?

I teach collegiate intro programming classes, I can say it definitely seems that way. My office hours will be an absolute ghost town, nobody has any questions for me in class, and then when a project is due about 1/3 of the submissions are AI slop.

I know cheating has always been rampant, but I've never seen it this bad before.

Are you allowed to fail them? Everything I've heard about primary and secondary school in the US is that teachers can no longer punish or fail to pass students who are cheating or failing or have major disciplinary problems. I hope that it's different after high school.

I was told specifically to give them a second chance at the assignment for 50% credit. No disciplinary action was taken on the part of the administration with the justification that "if they really don't know the material they'll fail the final."

So no, it's just as bad in higher education here.

The future looks bright.
