alt Hacker News4. Use AI to talk to the student to find out if they understand.
Tests were created to save money, more students per teacher, we're just going back to the older, actually useful, method of talking to people to see if they understand what they've been taught.
You weren't asked to write an essay because someone wanted to read your essay, only to intuit that you've understood something

I'm skeptical. Tests are a way of standardizing the curriculum and objectively determining if the lessons were learned.
I really believe this is the way forward, but how do you make sure the AI is speaking to the student rather than to another AI impersonating the student? You could make it in person but that's a bit sad.
