Re: “group work”

Group work sucks! ....a complete waste of time, but attendance is mandatory. I am currently studying Biochemistry.

If it weren’t for the more expensive version of ChatGPT, I would be failing. AI is a terrific teacher.

Personally, I think just one exam taken at a testing service should be enough to award a credential. The cost should be about $50 rather than the $2,600 my local state university charges.

Even though I will be 80 in a few weeks,I am not auditing. I am taking it for a grade.

Good for you.

I agree on “group work” - usually means one person does the thinking and actual work and there’s at least on that does almost nothing.

I use AI every day. I can extend my understanding on anything - compare ideas, contrast technologies, build out system architectures.

When used appopriately, it’s help is staggering. We’re in a new Industrial Revolution.
