I does create friction for the person who has to enter it into the checker though
This only proves you can write. You can still generate the text using an LLM and write it down with a pen.

I remember not long ago seeing an image of handwritten homework where the student answered “as a large language model …”.

I had a student give me handwritten homework for German class. He’d written directions, and there was no instance of the word “left,” but the word ”remaining” was in every other sentence. It was very obvious

Do LLMs do that? That sounds more like dictionary use without thinking.

I did ask him about it and he admitted it, but if he had done it with his own brain, it would have been worse, because we went over it in class a bunch first and he was capable of it then.
It was totally pointless though, because the homework was for extra credit. Luckily, I didn’t have to pursue it further, but there are some programs that would have expelled him for it. I can understand that, but I don’t think things would be much improved if he got expelled for it.
I just told him to stop being an idiot, because he’s not learning anything and the other teachers are probably better at spotting it. He was relatively dismissive at first, but he really didn’t learn very much German during a study abroad year, which is actively difficult to do. Now that they’re leaving, he’s realized that he didn’t get much out of the year, academically. Not a big deal, but he’s going to delay his graduation and see some minor consequences. Hopefully it’ll get his head on straight.

Nah that’s just how the fat kid in the class who did modeling for a big boy clothing catalog referred to himself.
