In an era where artificial intelligence is increasingly integrated into daily life, its impact on education has become a hot topic. The recent YouTube video by Vox, "AI Can Do Your Homework. Now What?", sheds light on the growing use of AI tools like ChatGPT among students. As these technologies offer new ways to tackle assignments and research, they also raise critical questions about academic integrity. How can educators ensure that students use AI responsibly, and what are the implications for honest learning and evaluation? This discussion is more relevant than ever as schools navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by AI advancements.
