"Why a Hoodie in This Weather?" Why the Glasses Were Hot... Top University in 'Uproar'

Cheating using AI glasses has been detected for the first time during an entrance exam at National Taiwan University, the country's most prestigious university.
According to Taiwanese media outlets including the China Times on Friday (June 12), National Taiwan University announced the day before that a major rule violation occurred during the second stage of the 2026 university entrance written exams, which were held late last month.
A university official explained that on the day of the biology exam for the dentistry program, they found it highly suspicious that the examinee was wearing a hoodie with the hood up despite the sweltering weather, but no irregularities were found during a preliminary check.
However, the official stated that the student's behavior appeared suspicious during the exam, and upon re-examination, it was discovered that the student had switched to a pair of black-rimmed glasses, not the ones they were originally wearing. The glasses were then inspected.
The official added that the on-site inspection confirmed they were AI glasses capable of scanning exam questions to provide solutions and answers, and the glasses were so hot that it was evident they were in operation.
Taiwanese media reported that due to the cheating, the examinee received a score of 'zero' for that subject.
One official emphasized that while devices such as smartphones and smartwatches are collected and stored before entering the exam hall to prevent cheating, AI glasses are highly likely to be smuggled in, necessitating the development of preventive measures.
The College Entrance Examination Center in Taiwan is reportedly planning to hold a committee meeting on the 25th to establish countermeasures against cheating using smart devices, including AI glasses.
