Parents in Massachusetts are suing a school over their son being punished for using AI. AdvertisementThe parents of a Massachusetts teenager are suing his high school, claiming their son was unfairly punished for using AI, as educators grapple with how to handle the widespread use of AI. AdvertisementJennifer and Dale Harris filed the lawsuit last month against Hingham High School, its administrators, and the school district, in which they alleged the defendants imposed "arbitrary and capricious" discipline on their child. Harris said that she would like to see the school "put in place an AI policy that makes sense." Matthew Sag, a professor of law in AI, machine learning, and data science at Emory University Law School, told BI that the school handbook's outlined policy is "hopelessly vague and unfair."
