AI Checkers Forcing Kids To Write Like A Robot To Avoid Being Called A Robot
from the delve-devoid-underscore dept
Can the fear of students using generative AI and the rise of questionable AI “checker” tools create a culture devoid of creativity? It’s a topic that is curiously one worth delving into a bit more deeply, in part because of something that happened this weekend.
Earlier this year, we had a post by Alan Kyle about California bill SB 942. That bill would require AI companies to offer a free AI detection tool, despite the fact that such tools are notoriously unreliable and prone to nonsense. As Kyle wrote, the bill takes a “nerd harder” approach to regulating technology its backers don’t understand.
SB 942 has continued to move forward just passed in the California Assembly. It’s now on Governor Newsom’s desk to potentially sign.
