US EditionNearly 7,000 UK University Students Caught Cheating Using AI: Report
- An investigation by The Guardian found that nearly 7,000 students across UK higher education institutions were confirmed to have engaged in cheating involving AI tools during the 2023-24 academic year.
- This rise follows an increase from 1.6 AI cheating cases per 1,000 students in 2022-23 to 5.1 cases per 1,000 in 2023-24, while traditional plagiarism rates fell.

- The data suggests AI cheating cases could increase to about 7.5 per 1,000 students this year, indicating ongoing difficulties for higher education institutions.
