In the future the llms can answer those questions for you by listening and feeding you answers into your headset.

The process you describe is a gate keeping exercise which will change to include llm judges at somepoint.

That would be cheating. If the exam is 'gate keeping', I will say that it is a gate worth keeping.

To be clear, I am not against alternative forms of education. Degrees are optional. But if you want a degree, there have to be exams and cheating has to be prevented.
