"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.

That professor was more charitable than I would have been, not failing all those students out of the entire class immediately.
Back when I was in university, if you got caught cheating, you got expelled immediately. Now, all you get is possibly a slightly lower score on your midterm?
This is bullshit
I hate how many posts on LinkedIn are “AI is inevitable, we might as well use it everywhere”… um, no. Develop critical thinking and the ability to do it on your own and then, maybe, just maybe, use it as a tool, not a replacement.
Why fail the other three? Only 32 out of 35 were caught.
I hoped it was obvious when I said "all those students" I was talking about the ones that were caught blatantly cheating.
Because my guess is that you don't understand why you're being downvoted:
You don't have to cheat to fail a test. Some people take a test and fail. That happened for three people.
No, I'm pretty sure he had 35 students total take the exam and that 32 of them failed. I think that the person above me meant to say all of the students which cheated should be failed from the entire class not just the test, but it not being explicit caused confusion.
Then why are you assuming he would fail the other three?
Ah, I see. Being pedantic about the use of the word "all". I applaud the pedantry. Have a down vote. You earned it. I always appreciate hardworking pedants.
I just told you
