Another Undergrad Is Trying to Disrupt College With AI. He Says His Version Isn’t Cheating.

Last week, a 20-year-old freshman at the University of Notre Dame emailed the undergraduate population with an enticing pitch. “I built an AI agent that connects to your Canvas and sees everything,” Caden Chuang wrote in the email, according to The Observer, Notre Dame’s student newspaper. “It figures out exactly where you’re falling short and gives you the precise roadmap to get an A with the least amount of work possible.” Within an hour, the university deleted the email from inboxes, Chuang said, and temporarily disabled his account. But more than 1,000 students had signed up.
