"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Ok, so not every single student does this. But I’ve heard tales of a lecturer who caught his student out. How did he slip? He copied and pasted the but that said ‘AI can make mistakes’ or whatever the copilot equivalent is 🙄
Teachers at my school have explicitly told us to use AI. Sometimes it is so that "we learn to use it" and they ask us to ask it for sources ans check them and that kind of stuff so it's correct and we don't plagiarize.
Other times just so that we waste time. Like literally cuz they get consequences if we talk or play or whatever even if it is our freetime or we have nothing to do.
Sometimes they just make up impossible stuff to do in class time but we can't do it later so then MY GRADES DROP BECAUSS I'VE ALWAYS BEEN SLOWER AT STARTING WORK AND EVERYONE ELSE USES AI.
I am not gonna act like I don't cheat but I am trying my best. The system is already trash and big part of our grades literally depends on what the teachers think of us or just random stuff.
Like why should they force me to read in the first place? People who like reading while read, the others will use AI or just hate it more it's countwrproductive. And they know they use AI. Shoot I've seen people use AI when asked for opinions or in diagnostic tests or whatever. They literally read OUTLOUD the reading to the AI.
It's a private school too so there probably is even more corruption anyways.
Like it's impossible for me to do EVERYTHING they ask me for when I am burnedout and even doing anything related to school is painful and then everyone uses AI and then they don't actually teach us to do the stuff we are learning or how it works in some way sometimes and then they give like 4 points to random people for any subject when it is grading over 10.
LIKE THOSE PEOPLE LITERALLY USE AI FOR WORK. ONE TEACHER USED AI FOR A LITERAL EXAM. AND THEY ALL ALWAYYYS USW AI ART FOR SCHOOL MASCOTS AND lJUST RANDOM WORK. It's so subreal.
Sorry for the rant I just needed to vent, I don't do that much.
No worries, rant all you like. I know I do (not about that, but other stuff)
