Korea Insurance Training Institute to Bar Those Caught Using AI Glasses From Exams for Up to 3 Years
Detailed checks of AI glasses wearers
Tailored supervision techniques for each AI device introduced
The Korea Insurance Training Institute said Wednesday that, following the first case of cheating involving AI glasses detected in the insurance sector last month, it has drawn up and will implement a comprehensive plan to eliminate cheating. The plan includes sanctions that can bar people caught cheating with smart devices from taking exams for up to three years.

In detecting cheating involving AI glasses last month, the institute demonstrated the effectiveness of advance training for proctors and its on-site response system. It now plans to improve its management system and strengthen penalties to safeguard the fairness and credibility of qualification exams.
The comprehensive plan will be implemented around three key areas: updating on-site response guidelines, advancing supervision techniques and strengthening penalties for those who cheat.
The institute has classified the use of AI glasses as a new form of AI-assisted proxy test-taking and substantially strengthened the related penalties. If someone is caught wearing AI glasses during an exam, they will be barred from taking exams for up to three years, and the institute plans to file a criminal complaint on suspicion of obstruction of business.
On-site supervision at exam venues will also be tightened. The institute will introduce new, targeted supervision techniques and detailed inspections based on the physical features of AI glasses and how they are used.
In addition to existing supervision concerning the bringing in and use of smart devices, the institute will set aside dedicated time for detailed inspections for AI glasses.
The institute will also develop and share with supervisors at each exam venue specific techniques based on the key operating characteristics of AI glasses. These include detecting unnatural head movements or repeated shifts in gaze to take photographs, as well as muttering to issue voice commands.
The institute will also prepare and implement a detailed, step-by-step on-site response manual to ensure swift and consistent action when cheating occurs.
Through this comprehensive plan, the institute aims to improve the effectiveness of its three-stage response system of prevention, detection on site and post-exam sanctions, and to continue addressing new methods of cheating as AI technology advances.
