The crackdown and massive amount of money spent student AI cheating is a real joke. One of the last UK university courses I took was including a full week of mandatory course about plagiarism with hours of useless videos explaining that using grammarly was considered plagiarism. Guess what ? The main plagiarized content I encountered were the lecturers slides, clearly plagiarizing from other professor slides, themselves having plagiarized other slides etc. No, this is not universal knowledge sharing etc. This was just blatant copy paste. These guys should clearly clean their own house before pinpointing students who will use AI anyway. They should check if students are capable of producing an original piece of work based on acquired knowledge and not test their capacity to spit that knowledge like a parrot.
