Prohibition of AI Assistance

ChatGPT trivializes a significant portion of homework assignments, making it tempting to bypass the learning process.
Using ChatGPT for homework is strictly forbidden as it:
- Undermines the foundational learning of beginners who need to master the basics.
- Prevents the evaluation of students’ actual understanding and skills, which is crucial at the university level.
- Makes the review of homework completed by ChatGPT dehumanizing for the instructor.

Consequences of Violation

Immediate failure in the course for using ChatGPT or similar AI tools.
Notification to academic institutions about the breach of academic integrity.

Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT may excel in tasks such as writing JavaScript widgets or centering DIVs, but they often fail to produce correct/good code for more complex and non-standard tasks.
Critical skills development is hindered by relying on AI as a co-pilot, including:
- Reading documentation.
- Debugging.
- Interpreting complex analysis results.
Using LLMs prevents the acquisition of these essential skills, especially for beginners who are just learning to program.

Avoid using ChatGPT as a co-pilot in your learning journey.
In return, I will not resort to unpleasant quizzes or exams that are ineffective for programming courses.
I acknowledge that LLMs can be useful in many aspects of life, including programming, provided that one understands the basics and has practical skills.
