This week RNZ revealed several universities have given up using software to detect the use of AI in student work.
Massey, Auckland and Victoria universities say the detection was unreliable, and now let students use AI responsibly in much of their work.

Auckland University's Business School Professional Teaching Fellow Patrick Dodd tells Mark Leishman why it's time to bring back oral assessments.
