Maybe the education system will finally learn that asking students to merely recite information that can be found by anyone, anywhere, in less than 10 seconds isn't helpful in judging their understanding of the subject, except in very limited scenarios.
The students who will do this already do this though, just with different source material I suppose.

I think we’ll see an increased amount of face to face assignments like exams or essays written in class only, where students can’t use these tools. It solves the problem entirely and is arguably better - but increases education cost.
Why? If there is 75% confidence a students report was generated using ChatGPT, then that’s enough to sit down with the student and discuss the content in person and see if they actually know it. A tool such as this could help the teacher having to avoid doing this with every student, and also reinforce to students that if they don’t actually know the material there’s still a chance they get caught.
> the consequences for honest students would be too severe to actually act
Only if acting is immediately accusing them of plagiarism rather than working with the student to ensure it’s really their work.
