Artificial intelligence observes examinations 

There have been talking about the surveillance elements in the entrance examination of the University of Applied sciences in Finland, and one thing what is interesting is that those elements are quite easy to avoid, because the person, who makes that kind of tests can use another computer or smartphone to find the answers for searching the answers from the Internet. This is one of the most interesting things in those surveillance elements, and the thing is that if those elements have not accessed the surveillance cameras of the computer, they cannot guarantee that the person, who makes that examination is the person, who should make it. 

But artificial intelligence is the ultimate tool for controlling answers and find out are they copied straight from Wikipedia because the system detects if the copy-paste or some of its variations like shift+Ctrl+v is used. It detects the use of this kind of combination, and what area in the form it has been used. 

The artificial intelligence can compare the texts with the model answers, and find out does somebody give those answers to the candidate. Also, it can compare the answers, what the candidates are given, and find out the similarities, and that thing would make it possible to find out, does somebody shares answers in the net. 

At this point, I must say that what a person leaves behind, the same thing would always found ahead. If the person cheats in the examinations, that means that there is a danger that the person would not graduate. And that thing causes problems because the student who would not pass the education would always cause suspicious about cheating in the entrance examinations. 

But at this point, I must say that the entrance examination is only one point in the journey of studies. The second thing is that when a person would be selected as a student the next step is to finish the studies and graduate to the profession. 

And in that stage, things like a cheat in entrance exams are normally uncovered, because the person cannot make the examinations or other duties like course reports properly. If there is very much mistakes or failed examinations, there will wake the suspicious about the deceit in the entrance examinations. 

Normally higher education institutions are selecting their students very carefully, and they should pass the degree. But if there would be problems in the examinations or something like that, that thing tells that there is something wrong with this particular person. So this is why the entrance examinations should be done frankly. This thing guarantees that also the degree will be done. 

The purpose of studies is to make students get a degree. And that means when a student comes to the university or university of applied sciences, those people should start to think the graduation. If the person would study hard, that graduation day will be closer than they even think. So this means that the studies should be done properly and fast and after that those graduated students will be ready for work.
