The narrative previously pushed was that police brutality is rampant. While I concede that there are definitely heavy handed cops that do love the power trip, and these frequently appear in body cam footage, what I've seen after watching countless bodycam videos is that the average person in a police encounter is an absolute moron. The amount of people getting thrown on the ground for no reason compared to the amount of people that resist and/or refuse to cooperate when they have committed a crime is not even slightly close. Legitimate cases of police brutality are a rarity, and the only reason you see them is because its easy media clicks. They aren't showing you the cases of guns being drawn, hands being thrown, or someone generally acting like they are in charge after breaking the law which is happening in the thousands daily.

Something needs to be introduced to reestablish critical thinking in the institutions where AI is integrated into learning but in a way that inspires rather than polices or generates, because the turnitin auto detector isn't even valid in most institutions, and the other methods I've seen are very limiting in what the AI actually does which isn't realistic in the workplace. Professors are losing their value when the chat bot could teach you an entire class, and beyond. Universities are handing out fraudulent degrees left and right without a care in the world because they're getting paid, but businesses are realizing this, and degrees are becoming increasingly less valuable with every passing year. Businesses realize the second they do an interview that a lot of these kids are defrauding their institution and only going for the degree. Eventually, whether its in 3 years, 5 years, or two decades, a degree will have lost all meaning if the problem isn't properly addressed.

I am currently getting an MBA online and I read my classmates discussion posts that are blatantly AI generated. People are not putting in an ounce of effort and its kind of insane to me given that even a decade ago this was impossible. It feels even worse when I'm doing the work honestly knowing that my peers work is getting pushed through the pipeline in the exact same way without any discipline.

Here's the issue that I have... When we use subjective reasoning that could be entirely wrong to strip people of their degrees, that is a huge problem as well. Perhaps part of the reason that universities have no idea what to do. Someone may have invested $40,000+ into that degree. Who are they to say based on some automated system that a student didn't create the work themselves?

I am ultimately just curious to hear how professors are adapting to this constant battle, and what solutions are being proposed. I'm personally seeing what I can do to help as a student to join in the fight to force people to learn again, and what I may be able to bring to my universities higher ups. It frustrates me that the universities aren't even trying. They aren't incentivizing students to do the work. They could care less. You can pass classes with perfect grades spending a mere 20 minutes on the assignments each week which would have otherwise taken hours. People are consequently getting dumber. It's a sad existential problem and in a matter of a few years, with the exception of some prestigious institutions, education is going to plumet in value to employers which is a major problem for those of us that are graduating from mid tier colleges that would've still landed us decent jobs just a decade ago.
