"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

The issue is the people who do just good enough on the exams to squeak by with the minimum. Exams also don't do a great job of testing critical thinking, which is what AI use really destroys.
It's like the old "book smart but no common sense" situation, but in this case even the book smart side is taking a hit because students will just study AI excrement without verifying that it's accurate. And the common sense side isn't just undeveloped, it's actively attacked.
AI is making people stupid.
