The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they're using the AI tool again more.

If anything, services like that can be better than mindless scribbling off of someone else's paper as you can ask clarifying questions and have it explain concepts to you with some accuracy.

cute of you to think students do that and not just mindlessly copy--paste what chatgpt spits out

Student myself. Yeah I'm sure some of them do, but the point is that people that do want to learn can benefit from the interactive nature of these LLMs. In this way it's an upgrade on receiving 'BBCADDAACB' in a group chat for a multiple choice test like in the old days.
