Thank you all for such insightful reflections! 
Imamuddin, I completely agree: AI is here, and students will naturally turn to it. As many of you said, the key is not to ban it, but to teach students how to use it wisely and ethically.
AI should be a companion in learning, not a shortcut. Like Zakia beautifully put it: the most powerful tool is still the student’s brain
.
I also really liked what Maïra and Sayeda shared about setting clear boundaries and encouraging honesty. In my own art classes, I see AI as a tool for inspiration and exploration, but not for replacing personal expression.
Have any of you faced a moment where a student misused AI? How did you respond?
Looking forward to learning more from your experiences!
