This is interesting. I don't know how the AI agent guidelines will be enforced because there will always be a model outside the curriculum that a student can use to bypass the guidelines. Encouraging academic integrity is useful but requires the student to buy into the idea that they are paying for an education, not a diploma. This is a tough problem and I have been wondering how CS departments are incorporating AI i…

This is a very good baseline for future courses to build on, there would always be a group that wants to jailbreak this and thats okay, but have baseline agent support learning is needed in this ai first world.

Jailbreaking isn’t even needed - you can just modify the file

I am really baffled by the comments in the spirit of "this is unenforceable, and therefore worthless". I bet most people would not steal even if they knew they could get away with it.

I mean, some would say that's how this whole thing got started.

I think these are based on the one I posted a while back: https://gist.github.com/1cg/a6c6f2276a1fe5ee172282580a44a7ac

good intention but useless let's be real

Seeing my own kids (teens) go through some of this, I'm becoming slightly less pessimistic as it all shakes out. Among their peer groups there does seem to be an opinion forming that sure, anyone can just ask ChatGPT for quick answers on assignments, but actually knowing stuff is a bit of a "flex" that's respected.

Teens also fucking hate AI, on a cultural-ideological level.

Stanford has an honour code. Meant no oversight even during exams. Worked surprisingly well when I was there. The flipside is, if you’re ever caught cheating, there are no second chances. I imagine this applies here, too, if they want to enforce it strictly.

You mean it worked well for cheaters right? The more I learn about these "honor codes" the more I realize how sheltered these American elites have become.

I think they may hate what it may be doing to their future outlooks but they use it as much as they do social media
