IIM Bangalore replaces exams with building AI chatbots to answer test questions
CurieuxExplorer · x · 2026-10-08
IIM Bangalore asked students in its generative AI course to build their own AI chatbots to answer 15 exam questions instead of taking a traditional pen-and-paper midterm. As the quote puts it, the exam is no longer 'do you know this?' but 'can you build the thing that knows this?' — a notable shift in how higher education assesses AI-era skills.
