Representatives of the University of Reading, UK, sent artificial intelligence to take exams and, using automatically generated answers, managed to deceive teachers during a remote exam. Writes UNN with reference to BBC.
Details
British researchers from the University of Reading used the ChatGPT bot, one of the leading AI applications, during psychology exams for bachelor's degree applicants at the same university.
It is noted that 33 fake students took part in this exam; the examiners were unaware of this. As it turned out, 94% of the submitted AI answers were accepted without any problems.
Moreover, teachers found that GPT chatbot answers were better than the average answer of a real student in 83% of cases. According to the researchers, this indicates that AI applications such as ChatGPT make remote testing more difficult for educational institutions.
And this already jeopardizes academic integrity, which is why the results of the study were assessed as "extremely disturbing.

Associate Professor Peter Scarfe and Professor Etienne Roche, who led the study, said the following:
- The results should serve as a "wake-up call" for teachers around the world;
- Many universities have abandoned traditional exams where students have to write papers by hand, and now educational institutions need to think about how to fight cheating with the help of AI
It's not necessary to return to handwritten exam papers, but the global education sector will have to change with the development of AI
