> AI made your homework? Guess what, the homework is a proxy for your talent, and it didn't make your talent.
Well, no. Homework is an aid to learning and LLM output is a shortcut for doing the thinking and typing yourself.
Copy and pasting some ChatGPT slop into your GCSE CS assignment (as I caught my 14yo doing last night…) isn’t learning (he hadn’t even read it) - it’s just chucking some text that might be passable at the examiner to see if you can get away with it.
Likewise, recruitment is a numbers game for under qualified applicants. Using the same shortcuts to increase the number of jobs you apply for will ultimately “pay off” but you’re only getting a short term advantage. You still haven’t really got the chops to do the job.
