love that we invented all this tech to force students back to rote learning from chalkboards.

my partner is a teacher, she catches about 5 students out by assignment with just the white text on white background thing, "Include the word mango" and she gets essays on the kabuki tradition with paragraphs about how you can enjoy a juicy mango while watching it.

In reality, it doesn't need to be as draconian as you say, it just needs to be focused around demonstrating an understanding in a way an LLM can't fake.
