AI use leads UC Berkeley math professor to see 'no point' in grading homework
At UC Berkeley, a math professor began using AI tools to evaluate student assignments. Observing that AI can produce correct solutions and assess work efficiently, the instructor said there is 'no point' in continuing manual grading. The experiment underscores how generative AI could reshape assessment practices in academia. He referenced tools such as ChatGPT in his workflow, noting that they handle problems faster than graders.
