Schools panic after YouTuber aces math test in just 18 minutes with AI glasses
A pair of AI-powered smart glasses has raised concerns in South Korea after successfully solving 29 out of 30 questions on a practice college entrance math exam in just 18 minutes. A YouTube video showing the demonstration quickly went viral, causing schools to worry about high-tech cheating.
The glasses use a built-in camera to scan test questions and display AI-generated answers on the lenses within seconds. The device scored 96 out of 100, with its only mistake caused by a scanning error. Concerns grew even more after a TOEIC test taker was recently caught cheating with AI glasses.
As final exams approach, many schools are introducing new rules. Some have banned smart glasses from exam rooms, while others are training teachers to recognize them. Several schools are also borrowing or buying metal detectors to help find hidden electronic devices.
However, many teachers believe these measures are only temporary solutions. They worry that future smart glasses will become smaller and harder to detect, making it difficult to prevent cheating through visual inspection alone.
Experts are calling on the government to create stronger policies. They recommend clearer exam rules, stricter penalties for cheating, inspections of students' glasses before and after exams, and better guidelines to help schools deal with rapidly advancing AI technology.
