College professors are going back to paper exams and handwritten essays to fight students using ChatGPT::The growing number of students using the AI program ChatGPT as a shortcut in their coursework has led some college professors to reconsider their lesson plans for the upcoming fall semester.
The best part is there are hand writing generating programs or even web pages that convert text to gcode allowing you to use a 3d printer to write things out. In theory it should be really hard to pass it off as being human written, let alone match your own writing, but I’m sure it will only get better. I think there are even models to try to match someone’s writing.
Are you going to bring your 3d printer into your university’s exam hall to write your final?
No, but if I were still in school I would be extremely tempted to have it write out an essay instead of writing out pages. The only thing that kills it would be it obviously would not match my handwriting.
Some options are to never use your own handwriting, or learn to write like the computer. Or create a font based on your current handwriting.
The problem with those programs is that you do not always know what the tests are going to be.
Also, it’d be hard to pull out the sheet if you have to store your bags away from you and have to empty your pockets.
