    Brother there isn’t even a national sex offender registry. You want to treat students who use AI worse than we treat pedophiles?

      You’re right, you definitely should treat sex offenders way harsher.

      Also if a school says “don’t do X or you WILL fail the test and MIGHT get expelled” and then you proceed to do X then I think it’s on you and not ‘bad treatment’ at all. Especially if you do X repeatedly.

        I did have one student fail for using AI. It was such an awful submission.

        I also had multiple students that I believe used AI to help in the creation of some assignments, but I built in presentations including Q&A to ensure they could speak to the subject.

        No situation I came across was bad enough to warrant expulsion except for one case of blatant plagiarism in which a student had accessed another students computer and reworded a major assignment, but this had nothing to do with AI.

        Bonus: I regularly ran in-class activities where I’d split the class into small groups on the Human side and on the AI side and give them the same tasks to complete. Humans always won.
