I've been seriously mulling over this the last couple of weeks. I teach computer science and, while it has always been a balance to teach students to effectively use tools (like Stack Overflow, Copilot, et. al.), I've always been able to come up with obscure and specific enough take-home problems that students can use these tools yet also be forced to solve a significant portion of the problem on their own.
ChatGPT changes everything. Feeding it any number of my take-home assignments yields 90%+ of the answer. In fact, we've already caught a number of students using this to cheat even in the few weeks before Winter Break.
It seems that now might be the perfect time to leave the education world. I'm not sure how to solve this problem (and it is an immediate issue) and I don't really want to spend my days policing students (or giving up altogether and letting them use these tools unfettered).
