I am just complaining. my professors are constantly like, “you should use AI to research this! ask AI how to do this in excel! employers are going to expect you to use AI to work more efficiently!”

they at least acknowledge that it’s inaccurate and you always have to check it, but there’s no mention of ethical implications, environmental impacts, the danger this bubble poses to the economy.

I hate it so, so much. I had a professor tell me that I can write, which is good, so I can prompt AI, which I didn’t find especially flattering as far as “compliments” go.

I’m just so tired of it, guys.

    Sounds like your professor is advocating themselves out of a job.

      lazy professor, mostly uses AI to do all the grading, and making the slideshow for lectures. many of them would rather not teach classes but do “research or grant writing”. Some goes as far as only reading off thier slideshow powerpoints as a lecture, and not discussing actual concepts, making thier tests hard and confusing as its very hard to learn from a useless slide. i had a biochem teacher like this, also she made tests that were convoluted as well.
