It's no secret that OpenAI's gangbusters chatbot ChatGPT has become the bane of educators trying to get their pupils to turn in some honest work.

The thing with being a cheat, though, is that a good one has to be careful to cover their tracks — something that some lazy students relying on an AI that does all the work for them appear not to be bothering with.

"I had answers come in that said, 'I am just an AI language model, I don't have an opinion on that,'" Timothy Main, a writing professor at Conestoga College in Canada, told The Associated Press.

"There is going to be a big shift back to paper-based tests," Bonnie MacKellar, a computer science professor at St John's University, told the AP.

MacKellar, fearing plagiarized programming, requires her intro course students to write their code on paper — which seems like a pretty Draconian measure, given the subject matter.
