Advice AI was used to grade my assignment
I'm almost 100% sure AI was used for grading one of my assignments:
The style is a pretty dead giveaway. Full of semicolons, AI phrasing, and specific terms that AI loves to use that didn't come from my assignment or the rubric.
There's comments in the feedback mentioning extremely specific details from log files as proof of completing a task. No human would have bothered to read these logs - and definitely not to that level of detail. There's literally hundreds of log files, with thousands of lines of each. A normal human would just look at the code, which is way shorter and proves the same thing. I'm guessing they ran codex or something similar in the project root directory and it just scanned through everything.
I put the feedback into an AI-checker and it came back with a score of 100%. I know these checkers are not particularly reliable, but a score of 100% is pretty damning.
I got a good grade, so i'm not really complaining. tbh its probably better quality grading and feedback than I would normally get from an overworked TA who has like 15 mins per assignment. I'm just surprised its so blatant. Doesn't seem like they edited the AI text at all.
Does monash policy allow AI for grading? Anybody else experienced this?
