A snapshot of how AI is changing education. Wild shit.
Gathering students in one building at a specific time of day to learn at the pace of the slowest students is unbelievably archaic with the advent of the internet and almost any specialized knowledge available to you for FREE or almost free, even the "prestige" of having a degree is non-existent since having a masters is the new high school diploma.
tradies won, hahaha you officecucks
>top CS grad is still looking for work one year laterFucking kek. CS grads are cooked.
I'm helping my teen niece with science homework. As far as I know they didn't assign a text book and notes are a few pages of pre-printed notes with blanks the students fill in as class progresses.As far as I can tell she doesn't really know how to read, the words come out of her mouth but nothing registers. I have to read sentences to her a few times over and over then ask her what the words mean (ie quantitative vs qualitative, the base words to help understand it)she briefly gets it then we move on to the next part of homework and it seems to have been completely forgotten and reiterated again. Probably takes 10 times over the same material for it to stick. This is ~ 2 pages of notes and a page of homework, large print. Takes about an hour to get through it.She uses tiktok a lot. I don't know if this is unique to her but it's looking bleak.
>>106770095I think your nice is just retarded.
>>106770095This would be above average at my son's school kek.
>>106769842The reading one is fine. As far back as 10 years ago, some English classes were expecting you to read two to three novels a semester. It just becomes a chore. Its much more effective to study one novel and build off of it. It takes more effort on the professor, but it doesnt burn out the students.
>>106769842>oral exams>going medievallol. lmao eventhats gonna be 100k thankyouverymuch
>>106769842if social mobility is still relatively high and intelligent/smart people can make bank but shit keeps getting more and more difficult and economic inequality keeps growing... can you imagine the world of these retards?I myself feel like a complete retard because my attention span keeps getting worse as time passes. can't imagine being a kid, having parents give me a tablet ever since I was 2 years old to distract me from annoying them and going to these schools with other kids that are even more retarded than me...
>>106770126>two to three novels a semesterIt's a tragedy that this is no longer the case. Society is in free fall.
>>106770325it's no big loss really, I only remember being forced to read jewish propaganda growing up, diary of anne frank, etc

>>106769893the real value of university is exams and assignments. the lectures are worthless but if you have to solve math problems by hand, answer questions in detail face to face or design and draw an entire machine there's very little room for shortcutsIt motivates self-study.
>>106770155oral exams and blue books profs always gave me grades that didn't end my education. they would read my improving chicken scratch and realize I am just a suffering circumcision victim trying to be a man. the rest were all dykes huffing psychotic pills giving me 65s then patting some brown chick on the head with 110/100. oral exams are core for men to preserve individuality in academics. it's just phd lite demo. expecting undergrads to all be nigger einsteins.

>>106769842AI has nothing to do with higher education apathy. We've conditioned teenagers to think of higher education as the only viable career path for the last 30+ years. AI update is a symptom of the greater apathy in higher ed. Students have always been apathetic, college is just a proving ground for the people willing to put in extra work to actually learn vs the people who are just there to cruise and get a degree. Grades don't matter. Majors largely don't matter. Self-motivation and flexibility matter. If you don't know how to actually learn shit, college *might* teach you. Or it might just be a waste of money.

>>106770833This is honestly pretty based. I never had any bluebooks in college but that was back in the 2010s. Honestly this will probably make college useful IF profs aren't raging faggots. Or what I really hope happens is college dies.
>>106770649>>106770963He's wrong. The value is in networking and a piece of paper mostly, and office hours to a lesser degree.
>>106770833>>106771812I'm confused by this "blue book" thingIt seems to just mean... normal test.Are test not supposed to be questions that you answer under the supervision of a teacher?All exams in my country are like that, from first year till end of masters...
>>106769927>office cucks go into trades because that's the only option left>pay drops by half due to excess supply of workersimpressive win for tradies
the academy since the 19th century has existed only for social engineering, tons of authors in the 1800s saw this happening and talked about it openly.It's only become more and more the casein the past couple decades it's become laughable, it's actually absurd anyone takes it seriously. Love seeing AI totally destroy the pretense this people are clowns (students and teachers)
The state of AI is quite scary. When I am tight on deadlines for homeworks, I just upload it to there, give a latex template for it to fill out and then edit/review/change what it got wrong. Most of the time I do not need to change anything and the hws i am dealing with are mostly msc/phd level math and econ courses. I only need to nudge it to the correct direction for my convex analysis class and I am pretty sure it could have handled it if I asked the questions one by one.However, I do not learn shit if I do this. If i spend the time on the homework, draft it on pen and paper then write it on latex, I learn and comprehend so much more.
>>106769842>>106769869I don't get it. How do you even cheat using LLMs? Don't tell me Americans do online tests...If that's the case then you don't need AI, everybody could cheat just by paying some pajeet $20 to solve it for them.But I guess I shouldn't be surprised about degrees being purchasable in America.
>>106773948Some exams are open book and notes, and some teachers allow people to use their devices for that.
>>106772988This lol. It's so funny seeing Americans worried because their degrees are being exposed as fake.Before only hot chicks or people with pocket money to pay a nerd to do the homework for them could cheat, only now that cheating can be done for free it has become a problem.That'll be 200k plus tip (of your penis).>>106773962Well, that seems like an easy fix then. I wonder why they don't do it then (I'm sure it has nothing to do with "oh noes we can't stop sportsball players and trust fund kids from cheating their way through college!!!")
I'm ambivalent about AI cheating. Most of the kids who graduated high school post 2018 or so are functionally illiterate, anyway. And we couldn't fail them because of grade inflation. Even absolute dogshit would get you a B-. If you're any harsher, you get bad evals. So at least with AI I don't have to pretend garbage is passable and I don't have to read ungrammatical English.I'm happy to teach those who wish to learn, but colleges weren't serious about grades as a genuine measure of merit to begin with. Mostly, grades in college track personality traits like conscientiousness and organization rather than genuinely understanding the material anyway.If the students who don't give a shit stop pretending to and quit wasting my time I can do the actual research I care about and that my career advancement depends on.Fuck em. If it's a circus, be a clown.
>>106769842buy the phoenix university IPO. they are embracing AI education and so am i.
>>106769927Not that hard of a job desu. During a wagie strike, yields went up when the salary cucks had to do the bitch wagie jobs...
as people today shave off time to reduce marginal costs of education and labor, as people once shaved off the edges of coins, until those coins came cast with ridges, let us be reminded of the apharsachites, lest we have no coin left to shave.

>>106773329Trvke, the state wants docile tax slaves, corpos want obedient wage slaves
>>106771870>networkingthis only applies at elite schools. most people are born in the wrong country and too poor to go to one. but you can still learn tons of shit you'd never learn on your own time because it's not interesting enough on the surface.
Oh no the teachers will actually have to teach and engage with their students, conduct discussions, oral and practical testing instead of just relying on paper submissions. Heaven forbid you put something as frictional as teaching and learning in the way of your immigration racket (in Aus at least).
>>106771812>>106772988I never had a blue book exam but I remember them being for sale in the college store during exam time. I figured they were for the English or Business majors. Most of my exams were either projects, demos, or oral exams where we had to give a lecture on a topic. I had only two classes that had a me turn in a typed paper as a final project. The first was my World History class and the second was a class on Programming Languages.
>>106770649>the real value of university is exams and assignments. the lectures are worthlessUnbelievably wrong. Exams are just knowledge checks to make sure you're keeping up. They are worthless outside of the class room. Assignments are only useful in that they teach you how to actually do the job if they're actually good assignments. Lectures are arguably as important as assignments because invite discussion on current trends and the bleeding edge of the field. If Lectures weren't valuable then people wouldn't continue to seek them out at conferences and workshops outside of college. >>106771870 is correct in that the using the university to network and the degree you get is what's valuable.
>>106770424Asking people to study for more than five minutes a week is highly problematic, if you can't present something as a 10-second Tiktok then it's not worth knowing about and books are just racist and sexist relics of dead old white guys anywayBesides, what's the point of learning anything when ChatGPT can just write everything for me?

>>106769842>>106770126Im a senior in uni right now, taking some 4000 level history and asian studies classes. I'm expected to read 50-80 pages per class per session. I've had to read a full book over the weekend for one class multiple times already. Public American university btw. Even 1000 level classes you to read at least 1 book over the semester.
