Student Arrested for AI-Assisted Cheating in University Exam

In Istanbul, Turkish authorities have arrested a student for cheating during a university entrance exam using a makeshift device connected to artificial intelligence software. The student was acting suspiciously during the weekend exam, prompting police to detain and subsequently arrest him. He is now in jail awaiting trial.

Another individual assisting the student was also detained. A police-released video from Isparta province demonstrated the elaborate cheating method. The student used a camera disguised as a shirt button, connected to AI software via a router hidden in the sole of his shoe. A police officer in the video showed how the system worked: scanning a question prompted the AI software to generate the correct answer, which was then communicated to the student through an earpiece.
