Professor denounces mass AI fraud on an exam at Brown

Professor Roberto Serrano at Brown University discovered that at least 50 students used artificial intelligence to cheat on a midterm exam in his advanced economics course, marking the largest known cheating scandal in the Ivy League. Despite reporting the incident to university leadership, Serrano received minimal response from administrators and believes Brown's acknowledgment of the problem as merely a "wake-up call" is insufficient, arguing instead for public recognition of the severity and a broader institutional debate about AI's threat to academic integrity.
