Oh, you sweet summer child. It's never ever been about science. And it never will be.

Fear. That's their only tool, and they treat every issue like a nail.

For an international law class, I once forgot about a 5 page paper until literally 2 hours before the deadline. I looked up a few sources and didn't stop typing for over an hour straight. Got an A. Fuck A.I. (actual ignorance).

As an instructor, I'd rather see your fever dream, No Doze-fueled 4AM essays written at an IHOP rather than anything generated by an LLM.

Hope this helps

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

What’s the word where you’re from that, when pronounced exactly as it looks, identifies a tourist immediately?

Imagine making-up a non-existent group just to be mad at so you could lie about your actual intentions.

How absolutely effing childish and banal.

If I did my job nearly as bad as some of these very important people I'd be led from the building while people pointed at me in disgust.

How dare you have a unique individual thought!? You're supposed to believe, accept, and parrot everything we've written in these approved books! How can you hope to succeed in this system that we've so very carefully designed for you if you ignore our completely objective instructions and guidance!?
