This year I had students turn in AI SLOP. FOR THE FUN CREATIVE ASSIGNMENT! They're so steeped in AI hype that they're outsourcing FUN itself.

Second, affirmative action persists in universities ONLY for men. It’s so open it’s not a secret.
I love how no one who uses ChatGPT ever wants to take any responsibility for its ills. Yes often in capitalism certain conveniences aren‘t an option to do without but this one very much is and if we don‘t stop it now …

05.12.2025 09:59 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Yeah what do you think I‘m doing?
Boycotting still helps as well though.
I just think nobody should be using this cause it‘s fascist tech that depleted the planet‘s water resources but what do I know

05.12.2025 07:49 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Macht alles Sinn für mich. Zusätzlich würd ich auch noch sagen absolut null tiefergehendes Verständnis für Technik bei vielen wenn nicht allen. Is ja generell an der Uni in den Geisteswissenschaften schon schwierig jemanden zu finden der nen Laptop unfallfrei an nen Beamer anschließen kann.
