Depends on the university policy. To me, I don’t see any difference between certain AI use and plagiarism. And plagiarism ought to result in expulsion.

As an instructor, however, it is increasingly difficult being 100% certain someone is using an LLM. While the easy spot is usually shorter paragraphs and a final hedging paragraph (the one paragraph that OpenAI included so they won’t be liable if shit goes south), there is still no way to be sure.

So instead, I just have to begrudgingly nod along as my engineering students dump awful, boring AI texts on me.

Don’t push this off, OP. Check this first. Immediately.

They are, but change is scary. And many will likely lose their jobs - especially those who refuse to learn how to use it.

It’s not all sunshine and rainbows for creatives currently, but it isn’t all dystopia either. A regular schmuck could never produce the same work as a professional, even with AI.

Sure, you can pump out a bunch of stuff, and some of it might look really good, but in the end, if you want precision, you’re going to want an artist.
