The text generator generates text. If you ask it for persuasive text, it generates text that is more persuasive. The text generator cannot lie, or tell the truth—it just generates text. Every time we say “the bot lied” we are misleading ourselves.

gah why is AbSciCon so far away from me this year!

I understand the utility of an AI phone tree... thing... but the soundscape of a busy call center in the background is honestly just insulting. Let the smooth robot be a robot.

Even if this is a problem, can you imagine knowing anything else about the current state of higher ed and thinking it's even a top 40 problem? Post-pandemic, students have become much more willing to communicate when they need help. If some parents in Scarsdale are gaming the system, I don't care.
