A new generation of agentic AI tools that can complete entire course tasks has provoked urgent debate on campuses about assessment, academic integrity and pedagogy. Entrepreneurs marketing agentic systems say the tools free students from busywork; faculty and academic integrity officers warn they can complete assignments end‑to‑end and outpace legacy plagiarism detectors. Parallel to that debate, students report heightened anxiety about AI detectors that flag work as machine‑generated. Surveys and campus reports show many students fear being falsely accused; universities are still developing consistent policies on acceptable AI use and on detection tools’ accuracy. Universities must move beyond ad hoc responses: institutions should combine clear academic‑integrity policies, assessment redesigns that emphasize authentic demonstration of learning, and training for faculty and students on responsible AI use to reduce misclassification risks and calm community tensions.
