A.I. has made college one big robot circle-jerk where students use A.I. to write papers and professors use A.I. to grade them.

the college system has been eroding for years, ai and politics pushed it over the edge

At least the students have huge debt and not great job prospects while the universities fund DEI and bureaucracy

College has been outdated for at least 15 years. Now it’s getting outdated to the point that it’s difficult to deny.

Does anyone find this man funny? Serious question

When I was in high school teachers were deathly afraid of cheating with calculators. When I got to college the latest Pentiums and networking made it so we could exchange messages during exams After college smart people just rented their skills to idiots AI is just the next level

I started going back to school 4 years ago and graduate this year. When I can see my professor is using AI to respond to me it makes me feel like they don’t really care. In some of our discussion boards it’s just students and teachers using it to respond to each other. It makes me ask why I’m even doing this. It’s like everyone’s lazy or just doesn’t care. I’m one of the only students who actually uses personal examples or like idk “where I live in FL (example)…” everything else is just AI filler. Some of the responses are double but slightly different because they’re all using the same AI lol. What a weird fucking world.

You can't be pro-AI data center and pro-climate change at the same time. These things consume MASSIVE amounts of energy. Just pointing that out.

High school teacher here. Most teachers use AI to make their lessons and exercises. Students use AI to do it. Teachers then check it with AI. Complete waste of time. "Fortunately" we are not allowed to fail kids. Modern grading, and school, is a joke.

Yes, "fight for humans," says the guy who dislikes children, is pro abortion, and believes that overpopulation is a real issue. 🙃🤣 Bill, if you want humans to have a chance in the future, promote traditional family values, encourage young people to get married early, and have large families. But the liberal in you won't allow you to do that.

As an educator I think it's funny that you think college is about writing papers. You and I both studied English literature. You went to Cornell, and I went to a much smaller, lesser known school. I think the difference between us besides your vast wealth and fame is that you have a fixed mindset and approach life as if you have everything figured out and the glass is half empty. You influence a lot of people. Keep being funny but keep learning. Education has changed. Keep current.

AI is an epistemological calculator. Not using AI to write today would be like not using calculators to do math back in the day. Very few people understand what AI actually is.

If anyone knows about gay circle jerks, it’s definitely you.

Humans will not be replaced. AI is the modern encyclopedia from back in the day. It’s just the internet much faster than we are used to. Human connection will never be replaced, not without serious damage to our own kind.

yup… make them write in the classroom in front of you. It doesn’t have to be long. You can make judge learning in a well crafted one or two page paper.

MAYBE THE ALIENS THAT WE LONG TO MEET, NO LONGER EXIST AND HAVE SINCE BEEN REPLACED BY THEIR OWN "AI" WHICH IS IN SEARCH OF OTHER "AI" IN THE UNIVERSE! NEW MATH EQUATION: "God and existence are the same!"

It's a joke, I get it, but it's not accurate. Professors are using AI to detect whether students have used AI to write their papers, and if it's found that you have, you will be facing serious academic consequences, including potential expulsion.

Whe the student loans don’t get paid, either the taxpayers will bail them our or the financial system will crash or both. So yeah we will all be paying for AI’s societal harm.

This the paradox of man created intelligence. The more man creates it, the less intelligence we see. It is like the welfare queen, who struts into a public place as if she is the queen. Her opulence stolen, yet she sees herself a picture of perfection.

Old man yells at Claude.

@BillyDees At least, everyone is getting exposure to AI. Teachers don’t seem to be teaching students how to use it, how to use prompts effectively or to question AI’s accuracy.

Artificial intelligence is highly advanced today and helps people solve many problems So what is the point of learning?

It is even worse than that. Then they use AI special software (ie TurnitIn) to check if the AI generated essays actually used it, they ask students to correct and then students use AI to “humanize” the AI that got caught ! All this is hilarious. Admit that everyone is using it and adjust the evaluation structure of students. Less essays based, more in person exams.

It is happening whether we like it or not. We will just have to learn to adapt as we have always done. You cant put the Genie back into the lamp now.

Making university obsolete.

Do enjoy making up shit that isn’t even funny?

Colleges have to adapt. I think one of education’s purposes, especially higher education’s, is to teach people how to reason. That’s what we called critical thinking fore decades. Not having good reasoning abilities means mediocre or even bad judgment and decision making, especially when working with AI. AI is a giant booster today, in all fields. Undergrad age is important in shaping thinking pattern. The question is how to adapt.

Facts. AI slop and AI circle jerks are becoming a large part of academia and so called “knowledge” jobs that are now mostly typing prompts into AI.🤦🏻♂️

Bill forgot to mention that professors and the academic crowd use AI to write their books. Thus, the latest woke essay is written by AI.

Hey, Bill, you still refuse to answer. Why is it a good thing Britain is less White, and what do you mean "there is more to do"? When is less White enough, 4%, 2%, 0%?

✅ AI can be one of the most profound and significant tools to advance humanity or it could become one of the most destructive and proficient brainwashing and indoctrination tools in human history.

This isn’t that clear cut. Professors are using technology and a combination testing mechanisms to start weeding them out.

In specific situations yes. My students have 5 quizzes. 3 multi choice tests written in case study formats usually. Developmental also interview an older adult w 10 interview questions and another 5 they do. They also volunteer in an assisted living or team present a topic

Bill's non partisan stuff is very entertaining.
