Imagine coming up with a machine that effectively gets to decide how humans are "supposed to" write and speak.

@artemis Isn't that the public school system?

@artemis

Reduction to a mean pollutes the source for everyone. The idiocracification of humanity continues apace.

@mckra1g @artemis Damn, those are some fancy words. You must be at least 50% AI.

@Natanox @mckra1g @artemis you can tell it's human because of the neologism. AI aren't able to create new words ATM.

@oblomov @mckra1g @artemis As a matter of fact LLMs can do that if you instruct them to do so, likewise it can interpret made up words rather well.

@artemis This is the opposite of the curb cut effect. They're harming everyone by repressing autistic people.

@foolishowl @artemis "on the suggestion of tech companies we have decided to raise all curbs by 10-20 cm."

@foolishowl @artemis They're harming everyone directly. It's just automated anti intellectualism.

@artemis sounds like a white supremacy machine tbh. prescriptivism has always been racist.

@artemis Feels like some kind of twisted Turing test...

@artemis I've always trended towards a high vocabulary — which, I might add, is something that *used* to be considered an extremely positive thing that was pushed to be grown as much as possible in kids.

And then there's how I basically *had* to go out of my way to learn the word "malicious" back in second grade to counteract some bullshit comebacks my teachers had about the boys teasing me. >_<

@artemis they are addressing the problem in a way that I wouldn't.

Report that to the education institute, up the chain of necessary. I get why teachers want to reduce their workload, it's just the tool not being effective. Scrap it, use a different one, matters not.

Instead of posting on social media for rage bait. I don't even believe they tried to de-AI it, but that is beside the point.

The core of the problem is they try to solve an educational issue with technology, they failed to get their students to be interested in writing and proud of being able to write eloquently; and try to address the cheating with a cat and mouse technology game.

I took the bait, well done.
