We’ll give you AI, but you aren’t allowed to use it. Instead, we’ll use AI to make sure you aren’t using AI.

Intriguing, although I suspect cheating via external assistance would not be too hard to figure out. The exam may have to be given in a proctored setting.

Wow, interesting article.
The LLM was a quick way to find out if the students understand the material. And recording the session from the students’ end was a good backstop.
And if the students use the LLM to prepare, that’s like doing more studying!

I don’t get academia
their mission is data dissemination for money
yet they avoid all data dissemination technology like it was a rabbid dog
makes me think they don’t really care about education, data dissemination, the future etc, they just want that big big bank account

I hate the AI type oral examinations. Companies are starting to use this for training, some idiots even use it for interviews and it’s completely awful. Mostly because people are horrible about how to ask for what they want and AI is almost impossible to test thoroughly. Especially in a one developer scenario like this examination.
Using this method I bet that there were grade A students failing the class. And does the professor think back and say this previously smart student failed there must be something wrong with my testing? Or do they just say that students were using AI so they deserve to fail.
People are lazy and they don’t often and reflect on their methods. So I’m betting they just happily failed the students.

Honestly a super interesting concept. Students main complaints about preferring other exam types align with my own experiences during uni. An exam that actually tests your understanding is normally the least favorite for most students as rote memorization is easier to prepare for. Especially in an econ or design class, this makes sense to deliberately not test for rote memorization though as it is all about application in an advanced course.
