24 ethics class submissions all included ChatGPT's identical 'sock color doesn't matter' argument

A college instructor shares that all 24 submissions in an ethics class contained a section arguing "the color of their socks doesn't matter," each phrased slightly differently — through utilitarianism framings, claims the action doesn't apply, and so on. Clearly everyone submitted the same ChatGPT output with minor tweaks. Everyone is being reported. A textbook case of AI homework homogenization gone hilariously wrong.
