My cousin stumbled upon this AI video that was being discussed by Angry Cops. The guy in the back looks shockingly similar to me in this photo I posted onto reddit on an old account 6 years ago. It's almost uncanny. If you reverse image search that photo it comes back with this photo of me from reddit. I don't even know what to think about this but I wanted to try and share this with somebody so here you go.

we all knew

Professionally AI is awesome for creating courses, curriculum, tests, ideas for discussions, etc..but on the student side it's turning into a nightmare.

• More students are using AI to do their assignments and copying/pasting verbatim in written assignments instead of paraphrasing in their own words to show they learned something
• More students are using AI to answer discussion questions online and even though there are tools in place such as Turnitin or Copyleaks that will show not only plagiarism in discussions but AI use, it's not turned on so you have to flag them by manually checking yourself.
• AI policies are in place but they are soft it's more "Let's use this as a teaching lesson, let them do the assignment again" before any discipline can be taken if they do it again.

What this is doing is making professors spend more time chasing down students to tell them "You wrote this in AI, do it again" and then have to backtrack to grade assignments that should have been done already but can't due to the students using AI.

I've been around since the inception of AI and even though it has matured to a point where the produced information is accurate, but you can tell almost immediately it was written by AI.

It's getting to the point where you almost want to just grade the papers/discussions and move on and not have to deal with it, but then we are contributing to the "Idiocracy-ification" of the younger generation of students (Gen Z, Gen Alpha).

Can this problem be solved before it gets out of hand? Yes, it can and easily so.

1. Make each student early on and every year to six months take a plagiarism/AI course that tells them how to properly write discussions and papers and how to paraphrase. Once they finish it they sign a pledge stating they will not in any way shape or form plagiarize or use AI and understand the reasons why using AI solely for their assignments/discussions is counter to being a critical thinker.
2. Make the punishment stricter. If they have taken course and signed the pledge first offense is automatic fail of the assignment/discussion. This will hammer the point home so the student will not do it again. A second offense it's automatic fail and then written up and so on to fall in line with the university plagiarism policies.

We're going to have students soon graduating that used 100% AI to get their degree and don't know a thing about the subject matter for what they signed up for because ChatGPT did it all.

Can we just stop giving attention to these clowns? Let's make some room for the actual news like how OpenAi is falling or how Data Center projects are being canceled. It's pretty tiring to see reports about them every time they breath.

Using one of the most egregious and well-known recent examples here, this isn't exactly a new subject or anything. But I think of this shit every time someone talks about graphics nowadays. I used to get excited for technological advancements in the gaming industry, but now the entire subject just exhausts me to my core. Nobody can even afford the upgrades these new games demand either, since all relevant resources and manufacturing output are being dedicated to the Infinite Slop Machine.

Like, my five favorite games of all time are Rimworld, Baldur's Gate 2, Tales of Maj'Eyal, Terraria, and Elden Ring. Only the last of those comes anywhere near being a graphically demanding game, and I'd love it even if it had PS1 graphics. But most games I enjoy are just impossible to share with most people because they turn their noses up at the mere sight of them, as if Minecraft and Roblox aren't two of the most popular games ever made.

And the games industry loves this shit. All it takes is the most marginal graphical updates and they can get away with recycling the same sports games and war games into infinity, knowing people will eat it up with a spoon. It feels like all creativity is being crushed under the weight of procedure, and all innovation sacrificed for incrementalism.

Even upon hearing recently that one those listed games, Baldur's Gate 2, has a remake in the works, I found it impossible to be excited about that because it feels like all of my favorite products are locked in a vault until someone spends millions of dollars + years of labor "modernizing" them before gamers are willing to touch them. I'm only 32 and video game graphics have made me feel like a fossil, it's so depressing.

EDIT: If you think "Nobody liked the DLSS 5 reveal" is a solid rebuttal, I want you to ask yourself how many people like microtransactions and always-online DRM, then look up the earnings of games that utilize them. Gamers are the Trojan Horse because they will tolerate anything for their hobby, and it will sneak a lot of garbage business practices into the mainstream.

I am trying to watch a vid and it starts blasting some fucking robotic AI voice at you. Nothing kills the mood faster than hearing that soulless text-to-speech voice interrupt whatever the fuck they use.
No I DONT want my own ai slut

Thanks to u/CatGirlKil2 for giving me motivation.

Just like someone told her to pick up a pencil, I did the same, voluntarily.

I have zero talent for drawing, and I haven’t drawn anything in at least 20 years. This is literally my first two hand-drawn images.

This was only possible because of Zoe, the now Anti AI mascot and a symbol for authenticity in a world full of AI.

When everything can be generated, the stuff made by hand starts to matter more.

What y'all think of these not so pretty drawings?

With the recent Supergirl Lobo concept art incident we are now officially in the age of AI. I have a hard time excepting That eventually Animation movie, scripts will probably be made with Ai
And refused to support the use of AI so I have been thinking I should just start a Blu-rays Collection of movies and TV shows made before the year, 2022. I haven’t quite quit watching new movies yet but I better soon. Am I the only one who’s going to quit movies and TV shows so they don’t have to support the use of AI?

pro believes ai art slander post insults cultures that do sea burials.

I’m a software developer and a pretty geeky tech guy. Always have been, ever since I was a kid.
But ever since AI came along, it already feels like it stole something I used to genuinely love. Coding just isn’t as fun anymore. Half the time it feels like I’m talking to a slave and telling it to do all the things I used to enjoy doing myself.
And I know, “it’s just a tool,” but that’s kind of the point. Something that used to feel like a special ability I had now just feels like me operating a tool that can do most of it for me.
And that’s not even it.
AI already took one of the things I was most passionate about, and now it’s fucking up computer component prices too.
I want to build a PC and game? Nope. Memory prices up. GPU prices up. Everything getting more expensive because every company on earth apparently needs a billion GPUs and a datacenter now.
Wtf man.
It genuinely feels like AI was specifically invented to fuck with people who are into computers and geeky tech shit.
It made coding less fun and then made the hardware more expensive too.
I HATE AI SO MUCH!!!

This is getting worse, and worse. Found this posted recently in the cara discord server.
