the promiscuous fandom-hopping tarts of today sicken me. No loyalty. No dedication. Those feeble video edits that are apparently meant to be the successor to Real AMVs. Nasty

so funny for her to say this and act all outraged after she said anyone who voted for trump’s opponent was an evil genocide supporter, and then has the GALL to be so surprised pikachu face about the consequences of her actions. like girl you functionally ARE a trump voter. trans girl tankies are the ceos of the leopards eating people’s faces party as it is their faces who will most imminently make a succulent meal for the leopards and yet they continue to deny all responsibility.

Kill me now

I'm so angry, it's hard to even speak

Everyone Is Cheating Their Way Through College

ChatGPT has unraveled the entire academic project.

There's too much for me to copy/paste everything. Here are some excerpts

These stupid, lazy pieces of shit can't even write about themselves. They're too busy melting their brains on tiktok every day, and no, that's not an exaggeration; look at this dumbass whose username is literally "maybe I'm not smart." Instead of learning, she's on tiktok all day:

I do question just how vigorous these essay requirements were if this dumb sack of shit was able to cheat so easily, but still.

This guy in particular should be beaten with a bat. Columbia suspended him, but this cheating piece of shit doesn't care. He's a techbro who wants everyone to cheat on everything:

This part makes my blood boil

"Use responsibly" go fuck yourself! You know you're marketing it for people to cheat!

The article says one professor was despairing that like half of the essays he received were AI-generated, and there's no way to stop it...which is so crazy to me, because the article only briefly mentioned a really easy way to prevent cheating...

Bluebooks! Make them write by hand! Hello! This is insane! Students all have ShitGPT open in class? Here's an idea: don't allow them to use computers in class! This problem instantly goes away if you take the tech away! If people are so worried that all of their students are cheating, why the fuck are people not going back to handwritten assignments, which were the norm for most of college's existence? It's not impossible in most fields. Yes, you can make your assignments so specific to your course and course texts that it becomes difficult to cheat, and people should definitely rethink some of their lesson plans, but requiring in-class, handwritten work would make a lot of this go away. Like, I promise these students will live without their god damn computers or phones. Ban them in class. Also fuck some universities for not just having a blanket anti-plagiarism policy that includes genAI

And here's the real harm:

Young people are addicted to tiktok, refuse to read or write anything by themselves, nuking their critical thinking skills, believing everything their phones tell them, and are (if they're not caught and suspended) pursuing degrees in subjects they don't actually know shit about. These are future professionals who can't even complete basic tasks and probably don't even have a Wikipedia-level understanding of their field. Going to college is a choice, you can go into a trade if you don't want to do the work of a college classroom, and there's no excuse for cheating your way through school. Period. I'm sickened by this article. Absolutely sickened, and it's infuriating how you find people on here repeating the anti-intellectualism of the right, saying it's okay to cheat and not know anything about the subject you're getting a credential in because higher education is a scam anyway. It's all about excusing their own laziness and refusal to get off social media.

Ultimately, I think the solution is rethinking how the classroom is run and how assignments are turned in, but I think there's probably a lot of reluctance among schools and universities to do that. They'd have to crack down and start failing people for cheating as soon as they're caught, but I'm sure the entitled "the customer is always right" attitude towards education in America would flip the fuck out. But if serious change isn't implemented soon, we'll have doctors who can't treat patients without asking their phones what to do, or teachers who don't actually grasp a subject enough to effectively teach it, or more lawyers fucking over clients by using ShitGPT to do their work for them. What are the long-term effects on human innovation and invention if everyone is getting their problem-solving skills nuked by a glorified chatbot?

I'm so repulsed
