Nearly 7,000 UK University Students Caught Cheating Using AI: Report
- During the 2023-24 academic year, nearly 7,000 students across 131 UK higher education institutions were confirmed to have engaged in academic misconduct involving artificial intelligence tools.

- The data suggests ongoing challenges for higher education, pushing universities to adapt assessments as AI use grows and detection tools remain limited.
