"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.

I am just complaining. my professors are constantly like, "you should use AI to research this! ask AI how to do this in excel! employers are going to expect you to use AI to work more efficiently!"

they at least acknowledge that it's inaccurate and you always have to check it, but there's no mention of ethical implications, environmental impacts, the danger this bubble poses to the economy.

I hate it so, so much. I had a professor tell me that I can write, which is good, so I can prompt AI, which I didn't find especially flattering as far as "compliments" go.

I'm just so tired of it, guys.

What's the field you're trying to learn? I hope it's not anything factual... Or just "normal" school?

data analytics

Oof. All I can say is when I learned computer science a while back, one of our professors told us we weren't even allowed to use Stack Overflow due all the misinformation on there. And he wanted us to know what we're doing when coding in that programming language and learn it by the book. I think that's pretty much the opposite of your story... And sometimes I'm glad I did. It helps to form a solid understanding and not skip some underlying concepts and then you end up poking at stuff to maybe make it work.
