An argument against fossil fuels is not an argument for nuclear.

Nobody wants dams. It’s not just dangerous, It’s also ecocide.

You noticed how we’re all fine breathing in poison and carcinogens? Still haven’t banned burning fossil fuels.

Who is “we”? How “fine” are you with breathing poison and carcinogens?

Gotta be on 4chan to equate a nuclear meltdown with a person’s hut catching on fire.

Bonus points for the ableism. Upvoted here ofc.

The academic publishing grift is based on the same “IP” as proprietary software.

Grift recognize grift.

TBH I feel like many IT people are employed because they’re “microsoft certified”, not because they know anything about linux. This kind of gatekeeping is a big part of why windows is so entrenched.

IP is trash but it’s not going to be fixed by pseudo-scientific capitalist ideology.

Wear a kilt?

TBH I’ve never tried and nobody told me it was gay. But I’m a sweaty person and I would love to air out my crotch except for fear of social criticism.

It just takes one person to notice (or see a tweet like this) and tell everybody else that the teacher is setting a trap.

Once the word goes out about this kind of thing, everybody will be double checking the prompt.

I can write a comment or even effort-post just fine, and I can type 100 wpm

Sure, because these are things that meaningful and worth the effort for you.

it’s just something about structured writing that makes me feel Ill.

It’s probably because the topic is contrived, the assignment is meaningless, and the point is filtering out people instead of education them.

There are lots of people who are bad at long tedious multiplications but still work productively in math, science, engineering, etc.

That’s the point of computational tools.

The point of writing papers for school is to evaluate a person’s ability to convey information in writing.

Computers are a fundamental part of that process in modern times.

If you’re using a tool to generate large parts of the paper

Like spell check? Or grammar check?

… the teacher is no longer evaluating you, in an artificial context

circumventing the whole point of the assignment.

Assuming the point is how well someone conveys information, then wouldn’t many people better be better at conveying info by using machines as much as reasonable? Why should they be punished for this? Or forced to pretend that they’re not using machines their whole lives?

Ok but will those students also be deceived?

This is invisible on paper but readable if uploaded to chatGPT.

This sounds fake. It seems like only the most careless students wouldn’t notice this “hidden” prompt or the quote from the dog.

Maybe if homework can be done by statistics, then it’s not worth doing.

Maybe if a “teacher” has to trick their students in order to enforce pointless manual labor, then it’s not worth doing.

Schools are not about education but about privilege, filtering, indoctrination, control, etc.

they represent you

Are you 8 years old?

Yeah usa is also not supposed to ship weapons to war criminals. Guess which principle wins out though?

Because I live in one of the many many states were my vote doesn’t matter at all.

What’s the point of casting a worthless vote in favor of genocide?

People here act like we live in some kind of actual democracy lol.

What were they doing with AI in Physics and Chemistry?

Grifting.

In what way is a chess engine meaningfully “intelligent”?

Classification =/= intelligence.

My spell checker can classify incorrectly spelled words. Is that intelligence? The whole field if a phony grift.

AI is a way to process fuzzy data sell fuzzy statistics.

Nobody here will give you peer-reviewed articles

Nuf said.
