AI can beat real university students in exams, study suggests

Summary and Humanization of the University of Reading Study

The University of Reading investigated the impact of AI substitution on the integrity of educational assessments, specifically in psychology modules at the undergraduate level. The researchers created 33 "fake" students, whose answers to exam questions were generated using an AI tool like ChatGPT. These "fictitious" students were then compared to 33 actual students, who submitted their own answers without knowledge of the AI-generated scores. These "AI students" performed significantly better than real students in both written exams and essays, scoring half a grade boundary higher in their first and second-year modules but slightly inferior to real students in their third-year exams, which the researchers described as aligning with the notion that AI struggles with "abstract reasoning."

autonomously gaining higher grades, the studies highlight a worrying trend where AI submissions could apparently bypass traditional human marking.🙋 The authors caution that while this could elaborate on academic integrity, it does not necessarily revert to traditional pen-and-paper assessments, which undergoes rigorous surveillance and detection processes in institutions.

The detection rate of 6% for easily spotting the full-brain pain of these AI-generated scores is problematic because other claims indicate that this rate is under significant tension, particularly given existing trends such as the University of Glasgow’s move away from university-wide exams in response to AI adoption, and the Guardian study, which found that 5% of undergraduates admitted to using AI-generated text unintentionally in their essays. Across 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-year modules, the "average AI student" scored 72%, while "real students" achieved higher percentages in their exams, with 89% achieving first-class scores compared to 60% for 3rd-year students.

This research underscores the broader implications of AI’s influence on educational evaluation, suggesting that improved exam scores could be a misnomer. Instead, higher grades may be an AI-driven bonus that could一体 with its "advanced, egalitarian, and insidious nature." The results also highlight the need for latched onto and revising curricula to adapt to the digital age, particularly in high-impact subjects like psychology.

In conclusion, the University of Reading study warns of a critical inversion in an era where AI-driven assessments could seemingly assert authority over human education and deserve not just a bonus but even a casual observer to recognize this shifting trust. The findings, while significant, demonstrate a level of Adolf to the "黑白" eight necessity to transform the educational system to confront the pervasive influence and consequences of AI on learning and evaluation.
