The South Korean education ministry will seek criminal prosecution of individuals caught using artificial intelligence (AI) glasses to cheat on the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT), with offenders facing disqualification from the exam for three years, up from one year. The measures, announced on October 29, classify such cheating as an act of obstructing the normal operation of national examinations and will be applied starting with the CSAT scheduled for November 19.
One designated inspector will be assigned to each test site to detect AI glasses, and a rapid response network will be established with local education offices. The ministry added AI glasses to the list of banned items in July and plans to review the use of radio wave detectors for next year's exam. It will also recommend universities apply the same rules to their entrance exams, where AI glasses use has been detected.
