Claim: 22% of students admit to submitting AI-generated content as their own work.

BLUF: Confirmed with context. A BestColleges survey (March 2023, N=1,000) found 22% of college students used AI on assignments or exams. However, the claim omits that this figure represents students who used AI tools for schoolwork broadly, not exclusively submitting fully AI-generated content. Some edited the output; 17% of AI users submitted with no edits.

Probability: Likely (55-80%) | Confidence: Medium
