So the new paradigm of AI (e.g. coding) is "AI generates, humans verify".

But how do humans get good at verification, if they're probably generating the code with AI to begin with? Sure, you could tell uni students to write python with pen and paper... but then their peer is going to pull up their phone and get chatgpt to write it for them in half the time.

dunno

@almenal99 well, last year half of the class in one of our courses failed their exam because it was done on computers with no internet access... I hope the message will come across strong this year that you can't learn programming by having AI write code for you...

Follow

@almenal99 oh yes... not to mention the following 10 meetings to decide what to do! This year the formative workshops will be done without internet access, so hopefully students will realise in time that they are not able to do simple tasks.

The bright side of the story is that the other half who did pass the exam, did quite well!
