IMO the ability of chatgpt to write passable essays is a very good demonstration that grading essays does not grade ability to reason/knowledge/anything else other than writing essays.

I hope (but don't expect) that this will convince people that grading essays is not a useful thing to do.

I don't see how spying on students' computers would help here at all: after all, they can just retype the essay reading it from a different machine/a phone/from audio.
