This is the best summary I could come up with:
On Saturday, Turkish police arrested and detained a university student who is accused of developing an elaborate scheme to use AI and hidden devices to help him cheat on an exam, reports Reuters and The Daily Mail.
According to police reports, the student used a camera disguised as a shirt button, connected to AI software via a "router" (possibly a mistranslation of a cellular modem) hidden in the sole of their shoe.
The system worked by scanning the exam questions using the button camera, which then relayed the information to an unnamed AI model.
The police discovered a mobile phone that could allegedly relay spoken sounds to the other person, allowing for two-way communication.
The Eudaemons were a group of physics graduate students from the University of California, Santa Cruz, who developed a wearable computer device designed to predict the outcome of roulette spins in casinos.
While the Eudaemons' plan didn't involve a university exam, it shows that the urge to call upon remote computational powers greater than oneself is apparently timeless.
