A Stanford University student talks about how AI has changed college life

A Stanford student says ChatGPT has reshaped campus life, making AI use part of everyday studying and cheating more common.

The rise of generative AI has blurred lines around plagiarism and academic misconduct, forcing universities to rethink how they assess students.

Stanford and other schools are reportedly changing exam formats, including more in-person testing, to better deter AI-assisted cheating.

The issue has become a broader higher-education challenge as students, tools like Perplexity, and new AI models spread quickly across campuses.
