"Teach subjects you know better than AI": a sharp take on students cheating with AI
felpix_ · x · 2026-09-07
A widely shared quote argues: "If you're worried about students 'cheating' with AI, teach subjects for which you know more than AI." The quoter adds that AI now "knows more than the entire sum of human knowledge, has digested thousands of libraries, and can search the latest journals on every subject."
The pointed remark is sparking debate about education's relationship with AI: instead of policing student usage, rethink what should be taught and where teachers remain irreplaceable.
