I really do think looking at bad writing is one of the best ways to learn about writing in general, especially for beginners.

the thing is, writing in general is highly subjective- a good sentence will be good in different ways to different people, or not impress someone at all.

a bad sentence? most people can spot bad sentences easy, especially if it is presented to them as 'here's an example of a bad sentence, let's unpack why.'

bad writing can also be very funny, which I think is again often more engaging than 'here's a work of literary genius go analyze it'. Like here's some bad writing from lightlark3:

The moment it was out of Horus’s grip, his body became bones. The flesh turned to ash. He became a corpse.

it's dumb as hell, but I think could foster a solid discussion when you ask 'why? what is the author intending to say? what about it makes it feel 'clunky'? How would you write the same idea?'

did people just decide that since LLMs can generate text they must be able to tell when text is ai generated, or did someone at some point start making the claim that these things were also an AI-detection tool?

✨️🎊🎇 I HATE GEN AI AND I HATE CHATGPT 🎆🎈✨️

i'm not even going to be nice about it, i think some of you don't have an actual opinion on AI and you have just simply regurgitated the "correct" opinion regardless of what side you're actually on and it results in you painting AI and the use of AI as this entirely black and white scenario with literally no critical thought. analyze the fucking opinions you hold

[st5lker]

actually i will get into it kind of but its not really that profound or deep i was just talking about how there are applications people don’t think about which i really cannot reasonably consider “cheating” but rather just time saving like having it proofread for simple grammatical errors you missed, quickly search through long documents for specific things/points of note, transcribe images of handwritten notes into plain text, do rough machine translations, etc etc most of which really nothing else can do as accurately or intelligently as an llm can and theres really no reason they have to be done manually by a human except for like pride or if you’re too stupid to read over what it outputs before using it. but when everyone talks about ai they only think about saying “write my essay for me” which like yeah thats going to take away any actual benefit you could gain from writing it and make up sources and shit but thats not the extent of it and people who are way too proud about having never once used an ai are corny about it and barely understand what ai even is and can do (because they do not use it)

Going to my cognition science lectures, and every time I'm more and more convinced that the professor might be in my tumblr bubble. The coincidences are getting a bit scary at this point.

But honestly i do judge people who use chatgpt for their college work. Literally if you chose to study something, why would you use ai for your work. If you chose something you want to study, doesn't it feel like a waste to not do your own research and work for essays and the like.

man everyone keeps saying you need to become "AI literate" and that it's genuinely useful for many tasks but the handful of times I've tried using it it just spit out nonsense? maybe it's just me not knowing how to "prompt" it or what to use it for, but how am I supposed to trust it when it can't even put 3 adjectives in the correct order? even after citing the grammar rule? that's such a basic thing not to get right. and there's people out there asking it to summarise long reports and stuff. are you well

I want to be a good and kind teacher so bad but if I open another blatantly copy-pasted chatgpt plagiarism mess of a paper that does not answer the title question at all and does not even pretend to have examples with sources I am going to burn my stash of stickers and they are never getting any from me again

[sttoru]

Do you have tips on writing an essay? Writing has never been my strong suit unfortunately 😫😫

heyyy omg uhh i suck ass at anything involvinf school work and that includes essays. . i only know how to write about dick and pussy 😞

buries face in sand. why is The Ongoing War In Europe a fun hypothetical topic to bring up for my lecturers

The science dystopia is here. The staff presenter during in-service at my rural midwest college asked ChatGPT to be a co-presenter.

Czarina-VM, study of Microsoft tech stack history. Preview 1

Write down study notes about the evolution of MS-DOS, QuickBASIC (from IBM Cassette BASIC to the last officially Microsoft QBasic or some early Visual Basic), "Batch" Command-Prompt, PowerShell, Windows editions pathing from "2.11 for 386" to Windows "ME" (upgraded from a "98 SE" build though) with Windows "3.11 for Workgroups" and the other 9X ones in-between, Xenix, Microsoft Bob with Great Greetings expansion, a personalized mockup Win8 TUI animated flex box panel board and other historical (or relatively historical, with a few ground-realism & critical takes along the way) Microsoft matters here and a couple development demos + big tech opinions about Microsoft too along that studious pathway.

( Also, don't forget to link down the interactive-use sessions with 86box, DOSbox X & VirtualBox/VMware as video when it is indeed ready )

Yay for the four large tags below, and farewell.

My girlfriends father has been into computers for as long as I can tell. He helped my girlfriend build her computer, by hand, with his computer parts and equipment.

Recently, my girlfriend wanted to upgrade a piece of it, and sent her dad a message asking him if he, the guy who supplied the parts and helped build the damn thing, had any suggestions on what brand/specs of part she should use. The man's answer?

"Have you tried asking ChatGPT? I'm sure it'll have some suggestions."

I just started grad school this fall after a few years away from school and man I did not realize how dire the AI/LLM situation is in universities now. In the past few weeks:

I chatted with a classmate about how it was going to be a tight timeline on a project for a programming class. He responded "Yeah, at least if we run short on time, we can just ask chatGPT to finish it for us"

One of my professors pulled up chatGPT on the screen to show us how it can sometimes do our homework problems for us and showed how she thanks it after asking it questions "in case it takes over some day."

I asked one of my TAs in a math class to explain how a piece of code he had written worked in an assignment. He looked at it for about 15 seconds then went "I don't know, ask chatGPT"

A student in my math group insisted he was right on an answer to a problem. When I asked where he got that info, he sent me a screenshot of Google gemini giving just blatantly wrong info. He still insisted he was right when I pointed this out and refused to click into any of the actual web pages.

A different student in my math class told me he pays $20 per month for the "computational" version of chatGPT, which he uses for all of his classes and PhD research. The computational version is worth it, he says, because it is wrong "less often". He uses chatGPT for all his homework and can't figure out why he's struggling on exams.

There's a lot more, but it's really making me feel crazy. Even if it was right 100% of the time, why are you paying thousands of dollars to go to school and learn if you're just going to plug everything into a computer whenever you're asked to think??
