New surveys and product releases show generative AI is reshaping how students complete coursework: a Pew-style study finds more than half of teens use chatbots for schoolwork, and a growing number of autonomous agents claim they can log into learning management systems and submit assignments. Educators report rising incidents of “frictionless” cheating and face a widening detection arms race as small teams or individuals create agents that interact with course platforms. Campus IT and academic‑integrity offices are scrambling to update policies, adopt AI‑use literacy, and rethink assessment design as agent capabilities evolve.
