The Great Zombification

이 글은 대학 캠퍼스에서 AI, 특히 LLM(대형 언어 모델)의 광범위한 사용이 학문적 정직성과 교육의 본질을 위협하는 현상을 비유적으로 '좀비화'라고 표현한다. 학생들이 과제, 시험, 심지어 학교 신문 기사 작성에 AI를 광범위하게 활용하면서 학습과 사고 과정이 크게 저해되고 있으며, 교수들조차 AI에 의존하는 모습이 관찰된다. 한편, 대학들은 AI를 교육에 적극 도입하거나 제한하려는 상반된 움직임을 보이고 있지만, AI 사용의 문화적·교육적 영향에 대한 근본적 고민은 부족한 상황이다. 이 글은 AI가 단순한 도구를 넘어 학생들의 사고와 삶 전반을 잠식하는 심각한 문제로 발전하고 있음을 경고한다.

“And so perfect parallel constructions fill the lecture halls, the take-home tests, the school newspapers, and perhaps even the idiom of student chatter.”

자사 AI 제품 사용량이 급증해 6개월 내 AI 비용이 급여를 넘어설 것이라고 언급했습니다. 이에 따라 직원들의 일일 제품 사용량 제한을 도입했으며, AI 제품의 내부 활용 폭증과 비용 관리 이슈를 보여주는 사례입니다.

JAMA 편집자 노트는 AI가 학술 작업에 일상적으로 사용되고 있음을 지적합니다. JAMA Network에 제출된 원고에서 AI 사용 공개 비율이 약 2년간 1.7%에서 6.0%로 증가했으며, AI 사용의 약 68%는 주로 언어 다듬기(문장/문법 개선)에 해당합니다. 편집자는 채택 속도에 맞춘 투명성·공개 기준 정비의 필요성을 강조합니다.

JAMA Editor’s Note felt like a mirror: AI is now routine in academic work. In JAMA Network submissions, AI-use disclosure rose 1.7%→6.0% in ~2 years; most use is language refinement (~68%). Transparency must keep pace with adoption. 🤖📄🧪 #AI @GlopesMd @DeryaTR_ @jnkath

During the Trump administration, sensitive but unclassified CISA contracting documents were uploaded into a public AI platform by the agency’s acting director, triggering security alerts and a DHS-level assessment.

While no classified data was involved, the case highlights governance risks tied to AI exceptions, access controls, and data handling in high-security environments.
