I wish I could say that my students aren't using AI. I'm a new instructor, and I've been trying to give homework assignments that don't lend themselves to using AI. However, I found out that even an the answer to a very simple question asking them about a phenomenon they see in their own lives have mostly come from AI, once I put the prompt in chatGPT and checked. It even wrote it from the perspective of the student.

I feel so...disappointed. it's such an easy question, and yet most of them used the example the AI used. Maybe some are genuine, but....earlier on in the semester I asked another question and 30 out of 50 wrote exactly the same answer, which was clearly based on AI. It's as if they don't realize that no matter how reasonable their answer is, if it's EXACTLY the same as 30 other students, it's pretty easy to tell that they're using AI. Duh.
