‘But there is a difference between recognising AI use and proving its use. So I tried an experiment. … I received 122 paper submissions. Of those, the Trojan horse easily identified 33 AI-generated papers. I sent these stats to all the students and gave them the opportunity to admit to using AI before they were locked into failing the class. Another 14 outed themselves. In other words, nearly 39% of the submissions were at least partially written by AI.‘

I’m in the same boat, and for me personally no, in uni I learnt to do as minimal of a job as possible to “pass” the arbitrary goals set by uncaring world. I had to unlearn all of that very quickly when I got my first real job that I actually like. My uni broke me, for sure, and I’m lucky I fixed a little bit of that decades later.
I’m sorry to hear that.
