College professors are going back to paper exams and handwritten essays to fight students using ChatGPT::The growing number of students using the AI program ChatGPT as a shortcut in their coursework has led some college professors to reconsider their lesson plans for the upcoming fall semester.
My broader point (in your metaphor) is that calligraphy tests are irrelevant at this point. The world changed. Theres not going back.
A calligraphy test is not irrelevant if you are studying to LEARN calligraphy. If you are arguing that calligraphy as a subject doesnt need to exist then fine then don’t study it. But you don’t learn it by asking AI to do it for you.
Typewriters are also irrelevant today. It was an analogy.
🤔 I dispute that typewriters are irrelevant. Famous writers still use them today, and they are a perfect means for helping some disabled people type out essays on the spot to test their comprehension of a subject. It gets around handwriting issues without allowing electronics that could be used for cheating into an exam space.
