If I was still in school i'd just generate the essay then spend like 5-10 minutes editing it to my own words. Kids arent stupid and probably will do the same thing. Also, now that the 'CHATGPT DECTECTOR' is open source I imagine they can just plug in their essay and see if it gets flagged before submitting to a teacher.

If you want to test a kid on essay skills have them read something before class and write an essay on it IN CLASS with a pencil and paper. Otherwise you can't complain when kids cheat.
