You ever hear the state if you owe the bank a 1000$ you have a problem, and if you owe the bank 100,000,000$ they have a problem? I think if a majority of students end up without basic skills the genius students will have problem. Will LLMs do that i don't think so but if you think its an acceptable outcome thats also not okay.
I think a bigger problem is in programs where you have group projects. You can't really be the sole person who's against using LLMs and in favour of doing 'the right thing'. Unlike what some people think there's little difference in terms of raw intelligence or ability to get rewarded by the system in the 'cheater' group vs the 'non-cheater' group.
The most motivated students don't need help. They will always find ways to grow with or without their teachers.
