There are phrases that hn loves and "scalable" is one of them. Here, it is particularly inappropriate.
Some people dream that technology (preferably duly packaged by for-profit SV concerns) can and will eventually solve each and every problem in the world; unfortunately what education boils down to is good, old-fashioned teaching. By teachers. Nothing whatsoever replaces a good, talented, and attentive teacher, all the technologies in the world, from planetariums to manim, can only augment a good teacher.
Grading students with LLMs is already tone-deaf, but presenting this trainwreck of a result and framing it as any sort of success... Let's just say it reeks of 2025.
If a student is willing and desire to learn, an LLM is better than a bad teacher.
If a student doesn't want to learn, and is instead being forced to (either as a minor, or via certification required to obtain work & money), then they have every incentive to cheat. An LLM is insufficient in this case - a teacher is both the enforcer and the tutor in this case.
There's also nothing wrong with a teacher using an LLM to help with the grading imho.
