If you're looking for a clear AI policy for students, I recommend Berkeley Law's. "Thinking remains the sine qua non of good lawyering (and of a quality legal education).This policy seeks to ensure that our courses focus on requisite cognitive skills by default" www.law.berkel…

AI Weekly's analysis
  • UC Berkeley Law will bar AI from conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising, translating, or editing any work submitted for credit starting Summer 2026.
  • AI is completely prohibited for any purpose in any exam situation; students also cannot upload assignments, readings, slides, or class recordings into generative AI systems.

AI Weekly's analysis
  • Joey Flynn and Thomas Dimson, both former OpenAI employees, built the site, which launched in June 2026.
  • The tool queries models including GPT-5.5, Claude Opus 4.8, Gemini, Grok, and Llama, scoring recognition up to a maximum of 996.
  • Appearing in a 1-billion-parameter model like Meta's Llama signals especially high relevance, because smaller models compress knowledge more aggressively.

Someone should mount a Pepsi Challenge-style campaign showing consumers prefer unenhanced search results. Then Google would have to offer "Google Classic" and rebrand its AI overviews as "New Google." @duckduckgo.com @startpage.com @ecosiasearch.bsky.social @qwant.bsky.social
