US universities abandon AI detectors amid homework scams

Original: Grappling with 'homework scams,' US universities shun AI detectors

Institutions have found detectors unreliable and prone to falsely accusing students, leading many to drop them entirely and rethink assessment methods instead. The shift highlights the difficulty of policing AI use in higher education.

Why now: Widespread student use of ChatGPT for assignments has made detecting AI work a pressing problem for universities.
