The tasks are designed so that artificial intelligence is not used to complete them. The teacher does not have a system to identify the fraudulent use of artificial intelligence or the skills. If a student collects his credits with the help of artificial intelligence, but finds himself in trouble in his later studies or in working life because he has not really learned the subject, the responsibility for this lies with the student - not the teacher or the educational institution.
