A still night. Katydid chirps muffle through thick window panes. You\u2019re reading heavy lines in a heavier text. The analog clock steadily ticks. Early hours. Blurred sight, throbbing head. The stale cold coffee in the withered Starbucks cup no longer invigorates. Someone snores far off, in another threadbare carrel.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s early May. You turn over another foxed page in A People’s History of the United States<\/em>. The Politics 201 term paper is due in less than six hours. But you\u2019re only halfway through distilling Zinn\u2019s tall-poppy theories into a convincing pr\u00e9cis<\/em>. You\u2019ve yet to crack The Imperial Presidency<\/em>. The clock\u2019s minute hand marches steadily toward the deadline. Damn that Delta Beta Psi mixer! To hell with that formaldehyde-tasting jungle juice! Woe your fading faculties! And you must surely forget nudging your dismal 2.3 average up to a mother-mollifying 2.8. <\/p>\n

Dire such a portrait may be—or, for those of little impulse control, a cruel remembrance—such a state is morally superior to the alternative. And, no I\u2019m not talking about the summa cum laude<\/em> overachiever who can nail a 4.0 in advanced calculus but whose mind blanks when asked how many bottles it takes to play Edward Forty Hands.<\/p>\n

In \u201cEveryone Is Cheating Their Way Through College,\u201d James Walsh performs the core function of journalism: he tattles on a bunch of brats. Walsh unfolds his New York<\/em> reportage<\/a> by quoting Columbia University student Chungin Lee, who admits to prodding ChatGPT—the popular AI bosom companion—into producing 80 percent of his class assignments. \u201cAt the end, I\u2019d put on the finishing touches. I\u2019d just insert 20 percent of my humanity, my voice, into it,\u201d Lee divulges. He went on to shamelessly deride modern-day coursework: \u201cMost assignments in college are not relevant. They\u2019re hackable by AI, and I just had no interest in doing them.\u201d From the mouth of Pell-Granted babes!<\/p>\n

That kind of brash coolness, emblematic of a young man convinced his grip on the world is firm, is undercut by that antiquated moral cicerone: conscience. Lee believes the stigma on leaning on a wired-cognitive crutch is fading: \u201cI think we are years—or months, probably—away from a world where nobody thinks using [AI] for homework is considered cheating<\/em>.\u201d [Italics mine.]<\/p>\n

Ah, that little c-word—a prick in a chancer\u2019s overconfidence. In all his rationalization of \u201chacking\u201d his way to a degree, Lee can\u2019t help but default to terms of deception when describing his ploy. He can\u2019t elude the Wittgensteinian imperative: he speaks in ethical dichotomies, of honor and humbug, of on the square and on the make, of right and wrong. <\/p>\n

Professors, too, are fatalistic about the prospect of grading endless synthezoid-slop dissertations. There\u2019s a shared uncanny valley among educators that \u201cstudents are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Somewhere, in that expressed worry, a sharp critic can detect a deeper concern for the preceptor profession: if any student can utilize an LLM program to consolidate centuries of thought into a report, what\u2019s even the point<\/em> of a classroom? And worse, without any utility, how\u2019s a thrice-degreed prof supposed to achieve tenure or a pension?<\/p>\n

(My international-relations professor once treated me to lunch my senior year, with the imploration that I pursue a career in higher education. Guess I was right to bin his advice!)<\/p>\n

The total annihilation of the university paradigm is not unknown to the AI obelisk. Back in 2022, Washington and Lee University professor Jeff Schatten challenged GPT-3<\/a>, an outmoded AI engine from which ChatGPT is derived, to recognize if it was \u201cthreatening the integrity of college essays.\u201d The answer was not dissimilar to John Connor asking the T-800 how the Terminators conquered Earth. The neural-chip dutifully acknowledged its power over the livelihoods of millions of aspiring adjunct instructors: \u201cIf anyone can produce a high-quality essay using an [AI] system then what\u2019s the point of spending four years (and often a lot of money) getting a degree? College degrees would become little more than pieces of paper if they can be easily replicated by machines.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s at this point that the presidents of every Ivy League university should pool their endowments into purchasing an H bomb, either from the DOE, or a black market fencer like Russia, and launch it straight into the heart of Silicon Valley. How badly do they want to save such repositories of sacred knowledge<\/a> like \u201cNature of Society: Beyonc\u00e9 and Intersectionality\u201d and \u201cIntroduction to World Puppetry\u201d? Young minds are on the line!<\/em><\/p>\n

Artificial general intelligence approximating the collate-condense-and-churn process is inevitable at this point. As AI-advocates frequently point out<\/a>, we\u2019re too far gone down the petabyte pike. Abstract cognitive work—laptop occupations like spreadsheet jotter and PowerPoint composer—will soon go the way of the Linotype operator<\/a>, the paddy roller, and being David Hogg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The only defense against this trend is a small weapon that, if wielded correctly, could be effective.<\/p>\n

Yes, the AI revolution isn\u2019t just here, but is being streamed 24\/7 on your smartphone. And yes, clever-clog students like Chungin Lee can\u2019t be prevented from enlisting the latest chatbot to custom-code his classwork. And yes again, today\u2019s children may have an easier time fraternizing with a cloud-based nonbeing than making friends in the flesh.<\/p>\n

But all of that kind of reliance on advanced hardware is done by one type of person: a cheating loser<\/em>. The \u201cartificial\u201d in AI will always apply to anyone who opts for inhuman networks over his or her own mentation. It\u2019s con-artistry and should be shamed as such. Fortune shouldn\u2019t just favor the prepared mind, but the mind whose synapses don\u2019t lazily rest on quantum chips.<\/p>\n

\u201cWork! What is it but death to souls eager for pleasure,\u201d cried<\/a> Lucien de Rubempr\u00e9 when tussling between a life of voluptuary excess and a vocation of hard, unstinting effort. Today\u2019s college students are convinced more Miller-Lite-soaked nights are the better living promised by technology. But how quickly they have their confidence gutted, their esteemed excavated, once the cheat machine is foiled. A New York University professor managed to hack the hackers, AI-proofing his assignments. His students immediately mewled<\/a>, cried foul, and demanded a dispensation for their techified \u201clearning styles.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the spare word of one pedagogue<\/a>: pathetic<\/em>. Such childish protest must be met with ridicule over and over and over and over and over again, until the tears and complaints harden into resolve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
