College professors across the United States are rapidly adopting generative artificial intelligence tools such as ChatGPT to prepare course materials, grade assignments, and even provide student feedback—a trend sparking frustration and debate among students, who question whether AI-generated content shortchanges the human value they expect from their education. The issue was brought into sharp public focus by recent student complaints at top-tier institutions, including a widely discussed case at Northeastern University, fueling a broader conversation about ethics, transparency, and educational quality in the era of AI-enhanced teaching.

An unprecedented coalition of over 250 CEOs from leading global companies has called for urgent action to prioritize artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science as core components of K-12 education, highlighting what may become a transformational trend in global education policy. The open letter, published this week in The New York Times, was co-signed by the heads of major technology, retail, and mobility companies — among them Microsoft, Etsy, and Uber — and warns that countries not investing in these skills risk losing their economic edge in the rapidly evolving AI era (TechCrunch).

A growing number of college students in the United States are deliberately inserting typos and stylistic “flaws” into essays generated by artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, in a strategic move to bypass AI-detection tools. This evolving trend is not only reshaping the dynamics of academic integrity but also highlighting deeper questions regarding the role of technology, creativity, and self-discipline within higher education institutions. As Thailand universities and educators closely monitor international developments in AI-assisted learning, the latest research underscores the urgency for reassessing the relationship between students, digital tools, and academia’s expectations (Yahoo News, 2025).

Generative artificial intelligence, once viewed with suspicion and outright bans in schools, is now increasingly seen as a vital educational tool by K-12 teachers across the United States, according to the latest reporting and research. This evolution from nuisance to necessity signals a pivotal moment in education, with implications and potential lessons for Thailand as AI reshapes global classroom practices. (washingtontimes.com)

The discussion around AI in primary and secondary education has matured rapidly since 2022, when tools like ChatGPT first appeared on the academic scene. Initially, schools and teachers were quick to ban generative AI platforms due to fears of increased cheating, misinformation, and a perceived threat to traditional pedagogies. However, facing the realities of digital transformation, educators soon realized that AI technologies could be harnessed for positive learning outcomes—if they were strategically and ethically integrated into curricula.
