College Students Furious When Their Course Is Taught by AI Instead of a Professor
SMRTR summary
University of Staffordshire students in a government-funded coding apprenticeship program discovered they've been taught primarily by AI instead of human professors for two years. The 41 students complained about AI-generated voice lessons, inconsistent American English usage, and generic surface-level content characteristic of large language models. This creates a troubling double standard where students face expulsion for submitting AI-generated work while being taught entirely by AI systems, leaving many feeling their education has been compromised by cost-cutting measures.
