Agreed.
AI now has a very mechanistic style—tends to easily drift into cliches.
On various Reddit groups where I post from time to time I have accused others of flunking the Turing test.
(Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test)
Curiously none of them have argued the point!
Where the smarter AI developers are going to get around this problem is to create AI programs that intentionally fail—and have to figure out what they did wrong.
That creates a template where the AI learns how to learn instead of just mimicking what it has seen elsewhere.

Great parents.
I hope they can afford to support this kid for the rest of his life.

My very liberal Jewish friend has a brilliant, handsome son who just graduated with honors from the university. He showed me a sample of AI on a little machine that goes over your eyes. I had a choice of what to watch and chose New Guinea. Fascinating,
When it was over, he asked me how I iiked it.
“Visually spectacular. But I could have done without the global warming conversation.”
Point is, the idiots have infiltrated everything.

My daughter teaches high school history. ChatGPT hadn't been out a week and her school was already seeing student's use it for homework.
My advice to her:

AI is either going to improve scholarship by automating the search and collection of background materials or it is going to destroy scholarship by doing the thinking and work for the students so they can go out to drink and party 7 days a week instead of 3 and concentrate on video games and porn the rest of the time.Simple. Relying on Skynet is going to destroy scholarship the same way that relying on spell checkers destroyed the ability of people to spell and proofread .

Hingham is the town next door. It’s very upscale with plenty of Harris/Walz signs. They replaced the BLM signs. I guarantee that if a Hingham resident saw a black person walking around their neighborhood , the police would get a call.

It’s no different than being asked to take a math test for basic PEMDAS questions without a calculator.
You have to demonstrate YOUR ability to write. Having a computer spit out text is not your work.
I use AI every day to query information and to assist with written documents - but nobody is telling me not to and if they ask if I used AI I say, “OF COURSE!”.

"The complaint argues that the use of AI was not explicitly barred by the teacher or the school’s Academic Integrity policy in effect at the time in question."
The parents win.
The school needs to update their assignment policy.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
