AI glasses cheating spreads to university exams in Korea
South Korea's education ministry said Thursday it will pursue criminal prosecution and a three-year exam ban for anyone caught cheating on the annual college entrance exam using AI glasses, the Korea Times reports. The ministry also plans a nationwide survey of middle and high schools next month to count students caught using AI glasses to cheat and review disciplinary measures, according to KBS World. On Nov. 9, Dong-A Ilbo reported that AI glasses cheating has now been found in regular university exams: Rep. Kim Hee-jung of the People Power Party, chair of the National Assembly's education committee, obtained data from the ministry showing one Hongik University student was caught wearing AI glasses during an in-person midterm exam in the first semester, in a business school financial accounting course. Korean reactions focus on the spread of the problem beyond essay tests and school exams to universities, with lawmakers pressing for stronger oversight and penalties.
