new study could put AI companies on the defensive. In it, Stanford and Yale researchers found compelling evidence that AI models are actually copying all that data, not “learning” from it. Specifically, four prominent LLMs — OpenAI’s GPT-4.1, Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro, xAI’s Grok 3, and Anthropic’s Claude 3.7 Sonnet — happily reproduced lengthy excerpts from popular — and protected — works, with a stunning degree of accuracy.

In this episode of the Smarter Campus Podcast, Zach sits down with Michelle Kassorla to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping pedagogy, assessment, and what it truly means to learn.Dr. Kassorla introduces a powerful reframing of Bloom’s Taxonomy for the AI era. If AI can now create first, then the real intellectual work for students begins afterward—through evaluation, analysis, application, and reflection. Rather than resisting this shift, she argues that educators should redesign learning to emphasize process over product.Together, they discuss:Why AI should be treated as a starting point, not an endpointHow “Inverted Bloom’s Taxonomy” changes assignment designWhy grading the journey eliminates the incentive to cheatThe limits of AI detection and the harm of adversarial classroomsHow shared vulnerability between faculty and students builds trustPractical ways to scaffold assignments and assess AI transparencyThis episode offers a concrete, actionable framework for educators ready to move beyond…
