> My guess is that soon or later people will learn how to game that AI.
To be fair, the GP here is specifically describing that he gamed the AI via a copy-paste of a critique of the AI, his kid submitted it on their own accord, it was graded without comment, and then when the GP went into comment on the gaming of the AI, the teacher not only did not care that the AI was gamed, but expressed gratitude for the AI saving hours of work, still ignoring that the AI fundamentally made things worse, all at the expense of the entire point of being a teacher in the first place.
The issue, for the teacher, is that in 'the system' in which they collect a pay-check, the AI works flawlessly. The point, for the teacher, is not to educate children. It is to have assignments that children pass with some sort of distribution that can be sent in and calculated by some person in a beige suit, wide tie, and hair troubles. The difference is subtle at first, but when you get further along to the point where the GP is sitting, then the difference is comical.
The AI allows the teacher to increase their effiency in processing assignments, ones that never really mattered to the teacher in the first place. In valley-speak: the incentives are not aligned.
