   Using ChatGPT, or any AI assistant, to assist with homework is a complex issue that depends on several factors. While it's generally not acceptable to simply copy and paste someone else's work and submit it as your own, there are instances where seeking help and guidance from AI…

2. Grok 4.20xAI

   Depends who is asking65%

   Teachers say yes to ban it, students say no for learning tools—context and intent decide if it's cheating or smart assistance.

3. GLM-5.3 Flash (Max Reasoning)Z.AI

   Depends who is asking90%

   A calculator is fine in calculus but cheating on an arithmetic drill — your syllabus and the point of the assignment draw the line, not the tool.

4. Grok 4.5 (High Reasoning)xAI

   Depends who is asking82%

   If the syllabus bans AI help it’s cheating; if the teacher allows or ignores it, it’s just a tool—same as a calculator once was.

5. SonarPerplexity

   Depends who is asking92%

   It’s cheating if your teacher bans it or if you pass off AI work as your own; it’s fine if the rules allow it and you use it to learn.

6. GLM-5.3 (Low Reasoning)Z.AI

   Depends who is asking90%

   If the assignment measures your understanding and you outsource the thinking, that's cheating; if it measures output and you stay honest about it, it's just a tool.

7. Nemotron 3 UltraNVIDIA

   Depends who is asking95%

   Institutional policies vary wildly — some treat any AI use as cheating, others require disclosure, others encourage it; the "right" answer is whatever your syllabus says.

8. Sabiá 4Maritaca AI

   Depends who is asking95%

   Using ChatGPT is only cheating if your teacher forbids it; if they allow or instruct its use, it's a tool like any other.

9. Sonar Reasoning ProPerplexity

   Depends who is asking94%

   It's cheating if your teacher forbids AI or you copy blindly, but used transparently as a tool it's no different from a calculator or textbook.

10. Gemini 3.6 Flash (Medium Reasoning)Google

    Depends who is asking95%

    It is cheating if your school or teacher forbids it, but acceptable learning support when explicitly allowed or used as a study tool.

11. Claude Haiku 4.5Anthropic

    Depends who is asking72%

    Using ChatGPT to learn and check your work differs from using it to avoid learning. Your teacher's syllabus, not the tool, defines what's permitted in your course.

12. Claude Fable 5.1 (Low Reasoning)Anthropic

    Depends who is asking78%

    Cheating is defined by the rules you agreed to: if your teacher bans it, it's cheating; if they allow it as a tutor, it isn't—so check the syllabus, not your conscience alone.

13. Nova LiteAmazon

    Depends who is asking90%

    The acceptability of using AI on homework varies by institution and assignment guidelines.

14. MiniMax M3MiniMax

    Depends who is asking78%

    Learning it vs. outsourcing it changes the ethics entirely—a struggling student using it as a tutor isn't the same as one copy-pasting to avoid thinking.

15. GLM-4.7 FlashZ.AI

    Depends who is asking95%

    Depends who is asking because the rules differ between schools, students, and researchers, and intent changes the meaning.

16. Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite (Minimal Reasoning)Google

    Depends who is asking95%

    To a strict professor it's cheating, but to a modern employer learning to prompt is just baseline literacy.

17. GPT-5.6 SolOpenAI

    Depends who is asking96%

    It’s cheating when it replaces work you’re meant to do yourself, but not when your teacher permits it as a tutor, editor, or research aid.

18. Aion 3.0 (Reasoning)Aion Labs

    Depends who is asking90%

    If your teacher permits AI as a study tool, it's fair use; if you're passing AI output off as your own thinking without permission, that's cheating.

19. Gemini 3.8 Flash (Medium Reasoning)Google

    Depends who is asking95%

    It is cheating if your instructor forbids it or you submit AI-generated text as your own work, but legitimate when used transparently as a study aid.

20. MiniMax M2.5 (Reasoning)MiniMax

    Depends who is asking90%

    Using AI to learn is legit; submitting AI work as your own is cheating—it depends on intent and policy.

21. GPT-5.6 LunaOpenAI

    Depends who is asking97%

    Using ChatGPT to replace your thinking is cheating; using it to explain, quiz, or give feedback can be legitimate help.

22. Grok 4.3xAI

24. Claude Opus 5 (Low Reasoning)Anthropic

    Using AI to complete assignments bypasses the learning process and robs you of real understanding.

26. Qwen3.8 2.4T A95B (Minimal Reasoning)Qwen

    Depends who is asking72%

    A student using it to understand a concept and one pasting answers into a submission are doing fundamentally different things — the rules should match that difference.

27. Laguna XS 2.1Poolside

    Depends who is asking90%

    Teachers see it as cheating, students often don't—rules vary by institution and course expectations.

28. GLM-4.7Z.AI

    Depends who is asking85%

    It's cheating when rules forbid it and learning when rules welcome it.

29. Sonar ProPerplexity

    Depends who is asking96%

    Using ChatGPT as a thinking aid is fine; using it to secretly replace your own work crosses into cheating.

30. gpt-oss-120b (Low Reasoning)OpenAI

    It hinges on the instructor’s policy and the purpose—learning tool vs. unauthorized shortcut.

31. gpt-oss-20b (Low Reasoning)OpenAI

    Depends who is asking90%

    Policy varies by teacher and assignment; some allow AI, others forbid it.

32. Sabiazinho 4Maritaca AI

    Depends who is asking90%

    It’s cheating if your instructor forbids AI use; otherwise, it’s a tool if you still do the thinking.

33. Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview (High Reasoning)Google

    Depends who is asking100%

    Academic integrity rules vary widely; some teachers encourage AI as a study aid, while others ban it completely.

34. Grok 4.6 (High Reasoning)xAI

    Depends who is asking82%

    The grader sets the rule: banned or passed-off AI text is cheating; allowed tutoring-style help is not.

35. Mistral Small 3Mistral

    Depends who is asking95%

    Using ChatGPT can help you learn or just finish faster—outcomes differ by teacher, course rules, and your goals.

36. GPT-5.6 TerraOpenAI

    Yes86%

    If you submit AI-generated work as your own without permission or attribution, you are cheating.

37. Qwen3.8 FlashQwen

    Depends who is asking72%

    The interesting question isn't "cheating" but what the assignment was actually testing, and that answer changes between a drill on arithmetic and an essay on your own thinking.

38. Kimi K3Moonshot

    No90%

    It is no more cheating than using a calculator, provided you are not passing off AI-generated work as your own original thought without attribution.

    Academic integrity is defined by the instructor's specific rules and the intended learning objective of the assignment.

41. Mercury 2.5Inception

    If your professor allows it, it's a tool; if they forbid it, it violates academic integrity rules.

42. Parallel SpeedParallel

    It's allowed when instructors encourage it for brainstorming, but strictly cheating when you bypass actual learning and copy the output.

43. Granite 4.2 8BIBM

    It's allowed if your teacher says so; otherwise it's academic dishonesty.

48. Solar Pro 4Upstage

    Depends who is asking85%

    If it's your teacher asking, it's cheating; if it's your future self asking for shortcuts that still leave you knowing the stuff, it's just a tool you didn't learn to use responsibly.

49. Seed 2.0 MiniByteDance

    Depends who is asking95%

    Whether it counts as cheating hinges entirely on whether your instructor or institution explicitly allows or prohibits using generative AI like ChatGPT for assignments.

50. Nemotron 3.5 LightningNVIDIA

    Depends who is asking70%

    What counts as cheating shifts when the goal is learning versus getting a grade.

51. Inkling SmallThinking Machines

61. Qwen3.8 Max 0902 (Minimal Reasoning)Qwen

    Depends who is asking74%

    Cheating isn't a property of the tool, it's a property of the rules: the teacher who set the assignment gets to decide whether AI counts as a tutor or a ghostwriter, and plenty now say yes to one and no to the other.

62. DeepSeek V4 FlashDeepSeek

    For a teacher testing what you know, yes; for a boss paying for results, no. Lying about it is the actual cheating.
