Ep 9: Is AI Making Students Smarter or Just Sneakier?

Are we fostering a better learning environment with AI, or are we just encouraging students to copy and paste? In Episode 9 of Deal or No Deal: Where Business Meets AI, host Michael Renick and co-host ChatGPT tackle the controversial role of Artificial Intelligence in education. Drawing from Michael's tenure as a university professor, they debate whether AI is a "cheat code" or the modern equivalent of the calculator—and why the education system (and the real estate exams) are failing to keep up. In this episode, we cover: * The AI News Rundown: The latest on OpenAI’s GPT 5.2, Google’s Gemini Deep Research agent, and the new US Executive Order on AI regulation. * Smarter or Sneakier? The debate on whether AI is destroying critical thinking or simply forcing us to evolve how we teach. * The "Page Number" Problem: Michael vents about outdated testing methods (like the Real Estate Broker exam requiring you to memorize page numbers) and why we need to test application, not memorization. * A New Way to Teach: Michael proposes a new classroom model: No papers, just oral defenses against AI-generated questions to prove true understanding. * The 2026 Commitment: Michael shares his "hard-hitting" vision for the future of this podcast. No fluff—just tough topics that move the needle. Connect with Michael Renick: * Call/Text: 941-400-8735
