	HN Discussion: ↑Oral defenses are already established practice in Denmark and higher education, making this a return to tradition ↑Oral examination effectively demonstrates true understanding and works well in practice ↑Educators should adapt assessment methods to focus on process over polished AI-assisted output ↓Oral exams have practical drawbacks like scalability issues, subjective grading, and abandoning written-word efficiencies ↑This approach would be beneficial to adopt more broadly, including in the US, even beyond AI concerns
