This generation of students, man 🙄

Fake: no one uses Copilot

Yeah its pretty bad. There is a subset of Young’s that are very against it thank goodness, but we know the idiots are going to win.

Benefit for me is I’ll actually know how to use my brain in 10 years, these idiots won’t be able to do shit once altman ups their subscription and they can’t afford prompt tokens.

You best start believing in cyberpunk dystopias.

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.

Ok, so not every single student does this.

Just had a discussion with a friend who teaches comp sci at the uni I used to go to. He asked the new first semesters which of them were using AI. The ratio was literally one hundred fucking percent.

We’re just doomed.

Fuck I remember 2 years ago when I was taking one of my uni classes it had this stupid weekly mini tests. So each wednesday there would be a 10minute 4 question test that was done on the website and would for some reason contribute 30% to your grade at the end.

And as AI was just becoming good at the time everyone (including me) used it to cheat on them. And mostly it was because these tests were impossible to complete on time.

Each test had a set of questions that would randomly assign 4 of to you. And these would all be multiple choice but they could be relatively easy theoretical ones or a bit more complex ones that included several calculation steps. The big issue is most of those more complex ones would take about 5 min to solve at normal pace and if you got unlucky you had to solve 4 of them. I think you can all see where this leads.

I asked a friend who did the same course a couple years before AI became widespread and he told me they cheated on them differently. A couple students each week would sacrifice themselves and speed through just to see rhe results and then share them with the others. The professors eventually figured that out and made it so you could only see your results 5-10 minutes after finishing the test (you only had a 10 minite window to start it anyway).
