Ik kan het hier alleen maar mee eens zijn en zou er een technische draai aan mee willen geven: de validiteit van toetsing is afhankelijk van de gezondheid van een leeromgeving. Als je betrokken, nieuwsgierige studenten hebt, dan is de kans op oneigenlijk GenAI-gebruik ook lager.

Zelf zou ik denken dat de tucht van de markt dit wel opgelost zou hebben. Maar blijkbaar passen we de hele economie aan de gevolgde opleidingen aan? Een onzinnig verhaal op WNL, wel vraaggestuurd door de doelgroep schat ik.

Gezien de orakel-achtige status van LLMs is het best gek als je hun antwoorden kunt bijsturen. Ik ben benieuwd hoe dit interacties met chatbots gaat kleuren.

Beter vindbaar in AI door uploaden llms.txt-bestand: klopt dat? Word je vaker als bron genoemd door LLM's (AI-taalmodellen) als je een llms.txt-bestand uploadt op je website?
