THANK YOU for actually being someone in this community proactively wanting to mobilise others against AI instead of merely complaining about it! I really hope more anti AI communities will start to shift toward this type of discussion.

Anyways, something I do to fight gen AI is at my school, I keep a constant pressure against any AI generated content whenever possible. For example, when the school puts up AI generated posters seeking middle school camp counselors, I attach aggressive messages such as “cut the slop” and the “we need to kill ai artist” meme and immediately put more on if any are removed in order to keep up the pressure. Eventually the posters are removed entirely. (The posters are still readable and retain their original utility, but instead of making the school walls uglier, they constantly serve as a warning.)

I think my classmates think it’s efficient partly because many of them ask it about stuff they didn’t pay attention to because they were yapping amongst themselves during class so they can’t even tell when the AI is pulling a fast one, they just get a nebulous and possibly correct understanding of the material which is better than nothing

I suppose a better question is how to remove AI as a lifeline for lazyboneses or take away its appeal but the former would involve dealing with authorities and I have little support on this in my school 😭

 

My high school is known for being sweaty because it has IB but also people use AI all the time here, to the extent that “chatgpt” is used as a verb. Unfortunately my classmates just want to get through their work as easily and possible and grab the diploma.

I tried to convince several people to not use AI or at LEAST use a different one from chatgpt, but I generally only got good results from people who were not taking very difficult classes. The more popular lot of Advanced Learning people even brushed me off as a “larper” when I tried talking to them about this.

How should I get more people to be willing to see chatgpt as something besides the easy way?

I think it depends on the extent to which an individual influences the end result. If the paper roll is pre made and the individual is merely placing it in its intended place, then that is different from carefully arranging notes and effects in a DAW.
