I think they are saying add chatgpt in because if everyone adopts it outside and then they cant do it on the test then the test now does not effectively tell how the person is able to think to solutions because the test itself is "out of spec" of the typical person needing to do the things on the test.

Its like when calculators were allowed then disallowed then allowed again and now we can't go without them a lot of the time while everyone now does more complex math and gets into higher level data sooner as a result of technological adoption.

The nature of the tests and teaching/learning now must change since we are looking at people who can do the combo of themselves plus chatgpt.
