AI Detection Is a Business. But Should It Be Faculty Business?: How many false accusations of cheating are you and your institution willing to accept as collateral damage? Jon Krause for The Chronicle

Students seem to recognize the ethical considerations and risks of using AI for their writing assignments, but most plan to keep using it anyway. Because it seems to work: 12 percent of student ChatGPT users say it increased their grade-point average. [...]given the rate of tech advancement on this front, and the time-consuming process of peer review, a study published now will ultimately report findings for versions of AI tools that no longer exist or have changed dramatically, even when the study authors rush to share preprint publications. Proctoring, oral exams, and blue books are making a comeback, but homework and writing assignments are essential to learning and thinking. Have your students use one of the many online writing tools (some still free) that allow a faculty member to see the version history of a document.
