An old friend of mine teaches programming and is building out a teaching language to try and make sure students don't cheat on intro lessons.

They put a license in saying that basically AI cannot index this code but I think this is kinda silly and a waste of time. They told me they want to see if they can make "MIT license but no AI" a thing and they hope more open source projects hop on the train.

I do see that if an AI was trained with this in the set it probably obliterates the educational value maybe. I can understand the motivation but uh....

I don't think this would work tho and I want to convince them they are going a little over board LOL - what do y'all think? Is it possible to make an "MIT License but no AI?" and have it be a thing?
