Maja Bødtcher-Hansen expressed surprise at the extent of AI-assisted cheating, highlighting a growing challenge for educational institutions.

"Generation AI has become students, and after an extraordinarily large number of cheating cases, Maja Bødtcher-Hansen, rector at Frederiksberg Gymnasium, is left surprised and calls for national guidelines," the report states. This sentiment underscores the disruptive impact of AI tools on traditional assessment methods.
