""What is to stop someone from sitting in the back of a classroom and whispering into their glasses to say, 'Hey, I need help with solving this problem,'" said Luke Hobson, an assistant director of instructional design at MIT and lecturer at University of Miami's School of Education and Human Development."
""Every time I see someone saying, 'Blue books are the future,' I'm like, 'So are we going to ban students from wearing glasses?'""
""Predominantly I teach online courses, and ... these AI companies have now created these different types of browsers that have agents embedded inside of them," Hobson said. "They can literally take online courses just by prompting them to do so. That's not the same as copy-and-pasting inside ChatGPT.""
Blue-book exams returned in 2025 as a measure to stop students from feeding final essay prompts into AI like ChatGPT. New wearable AI, such as Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses with an in-lens assistant, can see what the wearer sees and communicate privately, undermining in-person written assessments. Students can also use smartwatches, rings, or future brain-computer interfaces like Neuralink to receive help. AI-embedded browsers and agents can complete online course tasks by prompting rather than copying text. Early detection tools for AI-generated writing cannot provide complete certainty, complicating enforcement of academic integrity.
