I’m just happy they’re learning to write at all I guess

They were already learning to write perfect answers to exam questions, not actual practical use.

That really sucks for people who are in the Chen family.

I used to use emdashes, and now I get twitchy about it ever since that one GPT model was overtuned to use them every three words.

We didn’t stop teaching math when the calculator was invented.

Sounds like the good old days when we only learned for the purposes of standardized testing lmao

At some point, wouldn’t it just be less work to just write it themselves? Are they missing the entire point of learning to write a cogent message in their own words? Summarizing a topic, and presenting that information to someone so they understand it, is a learned skill. That is what they are paying to learn. You can see not only in written work, but in conversation that the younger generation just can’t express complex ideas in any cogent way when they are used to AI doing all the work for them.

Reality:
AI has/is rolling out at a ridiculous pace.
Schools have had to react or risk reputational damage – Companies have swooped in to fill this ‘AI Check/Anti-Cheat’ void, regardless of false negatives & positives. ‘Grab the bag’ while we can mentality.
Re-writing AI produced text ‘to appear human’ is not particularly difficult for many. One can even prompt an LLM to ‘re-write this text to appear more human’ or ‘replace these words’ and iteratively edit that output if/as needed.
*Not encouraging cheating. I happen to avoid/severely limit AI use for school, as I’m paying to learn. I think that’s the distinction – Some are just/mostly working towards that degree paper and AI shortcuts are part of that plan. While others are working towards learning the material, manually writing & limit AI use accordingly.
Not here to judge – Do you. ✌🏽

I’m glad I’m no longer in school. My profanity laced reaction to being accused of cheating would likely get me kicked out of school(unless I was actually cheating. )

Being a horrible speller is finally going to pay off.

Bring back papers being done in class. Actually. Maybe not. I can’t imagine reading students handwriting. Would be like deciphering an ancient language.

Just teach them to use AI instead, it’s like when teachers said we wouldn’t always have a calculator with us, let alone the entire wealth of human knowledge at all times in our pockets…
If kids are using AI to get A’s they’re learning what they need for the future.
Worried about churning out idiots? They already did far with than that with no kid left behind.
