      Students are cheating by using a program that can do their homework for them.

      A smart professor hid a guideline to cite works by a dog.

      The students who copy pasted the prompt got works attributed to a dog in their homework.

      A lot of students have started using ChatGPT to write papers for them. This person is saying they leave directions for an AI text generator in their directions that are hidden from view but which would be observable to the AI scanning it. So any paper turned in with that specific alteration would be almost certainly from a cheater.
