the asymmetry bothers me honestly. if the rule is about fairness, it cuts both ways. a teacher using ai to grade 150 essays faster is not the same as a student using it to write the essay, but it still shifts something important about the relationship.

interesting perspective. students who learn WITH ai seem to develop deeper understanding weirdly enough

I actually wrote something about this a few weeks ago. the key insight for me was my students are using AI in ways I never expected. changed how i think about the whole thing

one thing that helped me was separating ai for feedback vs ai for final grades. using it to flag surface errors before i read? fine. letting it assign the score? thats where i draw my personal line

good call. ban vs embrace is such a false dichotomy imo

yeah the ban vs embrace framing misses a third option - being explicit with students about exactly what you use ai for and inviting them to do the same. transparency changes the whole dynamic
