If you send me a 3000 word essay based on a 20 word prompt you are transferring information in an incredibly inefficient way. I'm going to have no idea what you actually wanted to convey. Just send me the prompt. I promise the outcome will be better.

If all you need from education is a credential, who cares about the assignments?
Five years ago you'd copy paste someone else's essay and change a few words into synonyms. Today you're getting LLMs to do essentially the same thing.
But it's not a writing use case. It's a plagiarism use case.
