Honest question: how valuable is the current mode of testing (based rote memorization) if much of that can be done by AI anyway? Maybe it’s time for new testing methodologies?
You need both memorization and applied reasoning to be taught in school. Without something to apply reasoning to you can’t really reason about anything. And without applied reasoning, memorization is pretty useless.
If the ai can get a good answer, the questions must be fairly well constructed, and it's reasonable to expect a student exposed to the same info could also come up with a good answer.
