Denmark is implementing new government measures to combat AI-assisted cheating in its education system. Starting immediately, upper-secondary students will be required to orally defend all written assignments completed outside of school. The Ministry of Education is also advising schools to utilize screen-monitoring tools, implement firewalls, and conduct more assignments on campus under controlled conditions.
