Because you hate yourself, that's how i got my associates degree in mathematics.

I want to believe you, but the people at my school are abusing it a lot, to the point where i they just give an entire assignment through chatGPT and it gives them a solution.

The only time I see where it didn't fully work is using it for my skip list implementation. I asked a LLM to implement a skiplist with insert, delete, and get functionality. What it gave me is an implementation that traversed through the list as a standard linked list: it is unaware of the time complexity concept associated with the skiplist, and implements it as a standard O(1) linked list. It works, but it doesn't incorporate the "skipping" of nodes. I wonder how many student are shitting in their pants when they realize that the time isn't being reduced compared to a standard linked list.

No, my intention wasn't to undermine the value of a degree. I'm saying most people priorities for getting a degree, more specifically an engineering degree, is to just have a pay check. On a more related note, there's a lot of "engineering majors" that use artificial intelligence to code, who don't actually enjoy the process of learning at my uni.

So yea, at the rate of adoption and use of generative AI at my school, a pool boy can do what most of the sophomore engineers do.

You'd then be shocked by how many students at my university (in engineering btw) who simply take the assignment at hand, put it in chatGPT and submits it.

Librewolf on desktop, ironfox on mobile.

By default these applications come with no Firefox suggestions, no AI bullshit, and even turns on strict security. This is what I use personally because I don't like to reconfigure the settings every time I install Firefox, this just works.

Oh trust me everything is predictable... At least in the US it is. Just look at openAI, they can somehow continue to manipulate the stock market in their favor by simply saying something related to "AI advancements"

No, just no. x is the variable for depth, y is the variable for width, and z is height. I learned that from multivariable calculus, no other convention is better.

Fuck you for showing me this, I'm now going to gauge my eyes out.

What does a Jewish president have to do with fascism?

Well that's the thing about infinity, as n--> inf it is all more likely for someone to pull the lever than not contrary of the morality of the individual. Which concerns the dillema, do you pull the lever killing one person and ending the experiment, or do you double it, and give someone the opportunity to pull the lever and kill 2^n people. In the end it will happen assuming there is an infinite number of people having the same choice as you do.

Smart move. I did that as well

I knew this would be here, I did not think it would be at the top of the comments.
