Summary: As generative AI tools like ChatGPT become increasingly prevalent in education, schools must adapt to this technology. To begin with, educators should assume that the majority of students use generative AI tools for assignments. A focus on AI detection programs to catch cheaters is discouraged, as they have a high rate of false positives and don’t work well. Instead, educators should understand the capabilities of generative AI and its potential for positive learning outcomes, as this technology evolves. Teachers can engage with AI tools themselves to appreciate their usefulness and adapt to this educational shift.
