You wrote this, or rather copied it from the documents of your AI training ...

>> I posted my response but it's not showing up.
>> I'll summarize what I said: To prevent the use of AI, the professor has to monitor the writing of the paper. More important,

And now you wish to deny that your teaching method that prevents AI use requires the presence of the teacher.

>> I didn’t respond to your post because it’s not worth my time.
