When I look at the quality of prominent Americans who went to ivy league schools, I don't think cheating your way through college will make much difference.

Pete hegseth graduated from princeton without the use of AI and he is one dumb fucking cunt, for example

It’s always been possible to cheat your way through school but as more and more people start cheating it just is going to further worsen the quality of college graduates

Not just Americans, the British political class has similar issues.
