Also, the inequity of those who have to grade intensive writing who do not have the liberty of "saving time" with AI.

Students, and some faculty, perceive it as an information authority - without testing or critical inquiry. It may, or already has, replaced existing knowledge systems and has created a new (or amped up the existing) power structure in the historic archaeology of knowledge.
