Will theses survive the age of AI? Hungarian debate over the 'AI pencil case'
Hungarian professional commentary examines whether the thesis will survive in the age of generative AI, and universities may move toward regulated use instead of bans. One opinion proposes an 'AI pencil case' model in place of the traditional thesis.
Who is affected and how
- university student
- The form of the final thesis and the rules on AI use may change, so clarify with your supervisor in advance what is permitted.
- education policymaker
- An institution-level decision is needed on the role of the thesis and on alternative assessment.
