There are, however, ethical issues overshadowing these advantages. One of the major issues revolves around authenticity. When AI generates large pieces of content, there is also a dilution between independent thinking and machine-generated content. Educational institutions emphasize the importance of independent work effort, but computers that can produce full-length essays contradict the idea.
Machines that detect plagiarism struggle with differentiating human and computer-generated writing, so enforcing integrity policy becomes challenging. It has been claimed that excessive dependency on such devices debilitates analytical thinking and merely turns writing into a technical skill instead of a mental activity.
