That's not universal. For instance, last week I got help writing a bash script. But I hope they're helping lots of you in lots of ways.

If you are making them aware they will fail by not reading the documentation, then its surprising they would continue to put that off. Using chatgpt is different than only being able to use chatgpt. Then again i was a kid once and kind of get it. Maybe banning it is the better option, as you say.

I thought it was scary enough when instructors would do "locked down" timed tests with short/essay answers. I cant imagine students thinking they'd be fine using chatgpt for stuff theyll need to applicably demonstrate.

I wonder if the drop out rate will increase for colleges due to stuff like this, or if students are majoring in more technical stuff more due to llm overconfidence.

Thanks for your responses!
