So i have a weird ass question.

Honestly fair, i appreciate that.
When you spoke with them about why they were using AI, if you did, what did they usually say? Was there like...a rationale they provided?
Like, did they get stuck, did they get anxious, fatigued?

I expected they would whether I tried to stop them or not, so I included some clear policy that it they use it then they need to mention they did and explain how+why they used it. Despite the amount of stuff blatantly done with it if anybody did that explanation I sincerely can't recall it happening
