Law Student Challenges University Over AI-Generated Exam Allegations

The Punjab and Haryana High Court is set to hear a case questioning OP Jindal Global University's decision to fail a student for allegedly using AI in an exam.

  • Kaustubh Shakkarwar, an LLM student, has filed a lawsuit against OP Jindal Global University, claiming his exam answers were wrongly labeled as AI-generated.
  • The university's Unfair Means Committee determined that 88% of Shakkarwar's exam responses were AI-generated, leading to a failing grade.
  • Shakkarwar argues that the university's anti-plagiarism policies are not formally approved and therefore unenforceable.
  • The case raises important questions about the use of AI in academia, intellectual property rights, and the definition of plagiarism.
  • The Punjab and Haryana High Court has asked the university to respond by November 14, potentially setting a precedent for AI-related academic disputes.
