When Brown University economics professor Roberto Serrano gave his students a take-home midterm for the first time, most of them did suspiciously well. Suspecting widespread AI use, he voided the results and told students he would reweigh the final, after which 18 students dropped out. The average score on the final was 48.6 percent, a historic low. Serrano spoke to Inside Higher Ed about the university administration's response, and how he believes they should respond to AI-enabled cheating.

I do so, and then, it gives me an inaccessible captcha with no audio alternative. I tried this on Windows 7, 10, and 11, with Firefox and Supermium, and nothing changes. I can't even read their accessibility page because it asks me to sign in and sending me back to the captchas! Is there a trustworthy captcha solver that works with NVDA or a way around this? Alternatively, does anyone here know of another site that sells vintage and antique things, or even another ebay replacement in general? I've been with them for over twenty years as a buyer, but if I need to change sites, I will do so. This is ridiculous!
