just me
o.o holy shit- i mean that’s a valid move, using AI for a handwritten piece sounds like a pain in the ass, but so does just writing 10 pages by hand, AI or not!
i’m glad i got through my higher education marginally before the AI boom hit (i graduated 3 years ago). i only had Turnitin yell “PLAGIARISM???” at me when i used a common phrase that another student used at some point somewhere (think - “The research suggests…”, or sometimes even the page numbers), good times good times
sure maybe it was tested with data already known to the researchers, but that’s not a real world test, that’s still a fully controlled environment. and the researchers, being human, aren’t perfect, the data about what the AI was meant to predict could’ve slipped into the training data. using historic data to predict slightly less historic data is a good first step, and it’s of course exciting! but we’re not done here
nobody can read AI code after its been trained, so until all possibility of human error can be fully disspelled by continuous testing it in real time and having the AI actually predict events that come to be - it’s a could, not a can.
i much prefered writing notes on paper but i’d cry if i had to write an essay by hand, i hope those students aren’t torturing themselves this way
“can” and not “could”? you haven’t had a chance to test it yet but already claim to have invented a machine that can predict the future a decade in advance? it better be the journalists that picked that word because if the scientists are saying that, then their funding would do better somewhere else
hence we’re sending the non-kinky ones
yes, been a fan of Camus’s philosophy since i was 16ish
and honestly, even if it is a simulation, so what? do you have a way to get out? can you even exist outside of it? do you hurt or love any less knowing that? what are you supposed to do about it? give up? lay your simulation body on the simulation dirt and simulation die?
none of it really matters does it, especially because you can’t know if it’s possible to leave/exist outside. as far as you know this life is still the only thing that is certain
from now on we should only send pacifistic asexual (sex repulsed to be specific, i know you kinky aces exist you can’t hide) vegetarians to space
i got 80 :') silk slonged itself perfectly into the 10 before i go back to working and it consumed my soul during this time
i used to do that, but my sanity suffered, now i block liberally
that’s not flower power that’s just misogyny! your husband has taught your daughter to be misogynistic towards herself. i think you need a long conversation with her, you need to disillusion her from the promises of “simplicity” of such worldview, because if anything happens to make her less than perfect for “a man like daddy” then she’s going to be left helpless and unable to take care of herself in the long run. and even if she finds a man to take care of her - she will be then stuck with him no matter who he turns out to be
so spacenoodle’s noodle has been in various spaces?
i was flabbergasted when i first heard americans have security & armed guards at schools. the closest to that any of the schools i went to had was cameras watching the doors and overweight PE teachers
mine is a fandom name too, misspelled, of course
in the gaming industry (doesn’t apply to indie games) devs get paid regularly before any game releases, and they maybe get a nice bonus if the game does well. and from then on all profits go to the production company, the devs see nothing of the millions the game they created makes
“stan” to mean “obsessive fan” hasn’t entered the vernacular usage of the internet too long ago. the meaning of words change, langauges are fluid, the living almost entity of a language does not care you dislike how the word is used, if it catches on it’ll keep happening until you accept it or grow numb
oh we’re like half a step away from that. hasn’t the CEO of openAI recently started to lose his mind? apprently, he was asking his AI about government secrets or other conspiracy shit and the AI, lacking actual government secrets, dished him out SCP foundation creepypasta presented as facts, and he thought the AI has trascended something and now knows everything
my best idea would be going old school with in person written & oral testing, since clearly nothing digital is of any help anymore. or perhaps require multiple digital WIP versions to be submitted? would also be getting the students into a good habit of making backups of their work. or maybe every essay should come with a director’s commentary (a more loose style reflective essay on the research and work done)
