The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they’re using the AI tool again more.

Homework is a tool for repetition and drudgery. Kids are in school all day. They shouldn’t need homework.
I hate to say it but there are simply so many subjects to cover in a single day that it’s hard to reinforce the lessons learned in class within the given amount of time in a school session. Maybe if schools were structured in a way in which fewer subjects were taught each day would the lessons stick better without the need of homework.
Fr. Just do the homework in school, proctored, if it matters so much to the teacher.
Ultimately the kids will get a test, and it should include an essay section, which they obviously have to write on the spot. I don’t really think it matters how much homework they did or didn’t do or what tools they used to “cheat”, as long as they can perform come test day that’s what matters.
do you think someone will be capable to write an essay if it is literally the first essay they ever write, since they were using AI all the previous times? This is like reading solved math equations and believing that in a test you’ll be able to solve them on the spot, without having tried to solve any by yourself before.
No! And they’ll fail, retake the class, and learn from their mistakes. I see no problems.
Homework should be reading, class should be demonstration and practice
Repetition is how people learn to remember things and improve their skills. I fail to see how that’s bad.
