The people who are using it to do their essays probably wouldn't have written particularly scintillating essays
tbf, i would imagine that most students weren't writing particularly scintillating essays anyway even before AI—almost all of my papers were started the night before they were due, and i only started my fucking masters thesis the week before it was due lmao, and i know a fair chunk of my year was similar (although maybe not to quite the same degree). i still scored well, because it was never about being considered or clever or what have you, it was about being able to sound like you understand the fundemental science and hitting the rubric. none of the essays were actually pleasant or insightful to read.
hell it even applies before university; i went to a hardcore nerd school and they didn't teach us any of the material particularly hard, they went over that once, but then all the study sessions and exam prep and drills were about teaching us the mark scheme. thats what matters and an AI can probably do the same thing pretty easily if you set up properly.
now that i'm out of this evil dumbshit industry, if i ever have to think about fucking financial regulation ever again in my life i'm going to become a terrorist
actually tbh my goal with this job was to try to leave this company worth less than it was when they hired me. and. i mean that certainly has happened lmao. thanks JPDON
we had a dog that we adopted at about 3 months old. she lived with us for 15 years and was always a perfectly happy, healthy, energetic, friendly dog that loved everyone. she never stopped flinching when anyone tried to touch her face. in three months someone had managed to traumatise her in a way that lasted for the rest of her life, and she didn't even have any injuries. even in the best possible circumstances some things like this will never be able to be undone, and comrade, you are helping an animal from practically the worst possible circumstances.
he might well be flinching his entire life. all you can do is listen to him and interact with him in the ways he'll allow. the fact that an animal with that background even lets you be near him is massive. he loves you, he just can't express it in the way most cats would.
middle class earners spend like lower-income workers
i love that they won't even refer to middle class people as workers - they're "earners" as if theyre bourgeoisie lmao. we can't let the various proles start getting the idea that they're all on the same team!
and then they immediately torpedoed it with the ridiculous phrase "maoist bicycle"
