How are you adjusting to the potential use of AI to generate individually tailored papers?  In the past, teachers could just search for familiar structure to see if someone pulled an answer off the Internet, but now, AI can tailor each answer separately. For example, "write a high school level 500 word paper on Milton's Paradise Lost using modern references to highlight key points." That query would generate a very solid paper that would be very difficult to detect.

The purpose of writing education is not to attain a specific grade, although that's always a goal, but rather to experience critical thinking and learn how to structure  persuasive writing. Those are absolutely critical life skills that I worry about being lost when at 11:55 PM on the night before a paper is due, a student can put a short question into AI and have it generate the work that is needed for the following morning.

Is there any way to tap into whether a student is making "excessive use" of AI? Or do you just throw your hands in the air and not deal with the issue?
