"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.
Rules:
- Relevant posts only.
- No bigotry.
- This isn't a place to talk about the cons and (supposed) pros of AI for different use cases. This is /c/fuck_ai .
- Especially no AI advocacy.
- Don't make any posts that are just AI content with no context unless the point of your post is obvious from content. (Don't just post slop advertisements or slop political cartoons. At least make your point about it clear so we know you aren't just trolling.)
- Venting is part of the purpose of this community, but don't aim frustration or accusations at other users.
- These rules are a living document that may change in the future.

Using it for school work is demonstrably not learning. In fact using an LLM is antithical to learning: it's cognitive offloading.
If she cares about actually learning she'd do her own school work.
That's the problem I see here... my 2¢
Now try saying that about audio books. See the hypocrisy in action.
I could say that about audio books... but it wouldn't be true.

I have to disagree here.
If you listen to an audiobook, you still take in all the same info as you would reading the book yourself.
If you use AI to help you with a research paper you will always be offloading part of the task. Use it to gather your sources? You just offloaded the skills of looking for credible evidence to back up your claim. Use it to write the paper after doing the research yourself? You still offload the skill of crafting your arguments, word choice, persuasion, etc.
You are also taking a big risk assuming that the output of the clanker is correct as it usually doesn’t provide you sources to double check yourself.
