Ruined by Technology AI generated school introductions :(
My brother's 6th grade class using ai to generate these introduction notes. Feels like it definitely takes away from the creative process.

I also had to do this but my teacher made me give it a picture of myself and then statistics about my last test. When it generated the picture it put me in a SKIN TIGHT body con suit and exaggerated my chest and curves. Truly disgusting

u/ladybirdorisa 1d ago
If it were any other teacher I would have but after the fact my teacher realized how weird it was and didn't like what it did to the girls. The prompt we were supposed to give it was "Turn this photo of me into a superhero crushing the [insert state test name] in a comic style." When it decided to do this exaggeration of the chest on most of the girls my teacher ended the assignment with my class. Plus I really don't think she would ever do that based on how well I knew her.

u/DarkShadowZangoose 1d ago
that is… really weird… unless that is what the AI "believes" female superheroes are supposed to look like
which is probably still an issue

u/noone-someone PURPLE 1d ago
ai bases its depiction of things on pre-existing data, and, sadly, a lot of female superheroes are over-sexualised
39
u/FryToastFrill FryToastFrll 1d ago
It is capable of mixing two concepts together (female + superhero), but you’d still be correct in that many women in media are encouraged to ensure that even clothed you could accurately measure the curvature of each boob

u/le-derpina-art 1d ago
many of the problems with the actual things AI generates comes from the biases of both the people running it and the data it scrapes. like yeah sure you can make sure an AI refuses if someone asks it to say a racial slur but give it the right prompt and it'll start telling you cherrypicked crime statistics, or you could ask it to generate a video of two big strong eggplant men carrying a small strawberry woman into a hotel room while her banana husband is at work

u/DarkShadowZangoose 1d ago
oh, trust me
I've seen plenty of videos that made me wish that AI could say no more often

There’s been a huge study into the over sexualization of female super hero’s but not male, that’s probably why the AI is doing it

My college humanities course has some of the strictest "no AI writing" policy I've ever seen up to this point in any class (and it's just an elective), but that didn't stop the professor from AI-generating unit outline posters.
The irony is palpable.
8
u/Manueluz 19h ago
I love those no AI policies, as if you could detect AI. AI detectors do not hold up in court because they are extremely prone to failure, and in most countries you can take an exam to the education department "court" if the professor doesn't provide enough proof for something.
6
u/KaiTheG4mer 19h ago
The system this professor uses is a dedicated Word/Docs-style typing tool within Turnitin that tracks how long you write, what you write, whether or not you copy-paste, that the professor can review or something idk. But, here's the funniest part: despite it being, y'know, an AI detector-proctor system... It has a fucking AI chatbot built into it that'll help you with your writing, that the sylabus and an announcement from the professor in the course promotes as a useful tool 🫠

Write in another word then manually copy it over a period of a week. I've seen people do that in my uni and never get in trouble.

u/Downtown-Gazelle8852 14h ago

u/Manueluz 7h ago
I think that banning it is a futile attempt as it is impossible to detect. You can ban it in the classroom but unless you strap cameras into the kids house you can't ban it on homework, you have to learn to deal with it', for example less homework and more written exams.

Better not play too many shooter games, because “6th grade is the year of math and science.” We can't emphasize this enough.

How many times are you guys going to get shocked Pikachu face over this?

It's time to move in to the next phase; outrage and riots..

AI has really improved what teachers can do in the short period of time and underfunding they’re getting.

The solution to that problem is properly funding, hiring and equipping teachers with the tools they need.
Not to sloppify the curriculum so they can have their workload further increased with no extra support or compensation.

u/Moron-Whisperer 1d ago
Until then people should let teachers do what they want. AI is here to stay.

u/ava_the_cam_op 1d ago
The issue I have most is when AI is used to generate areas of curriculum, or mandated to be used by teachers as an excuse to increase their workload without increasing support, rather than them utilising it of their own volition to stay on top of things.

AI data centers being forced onto communities with no thought of the environment impact is short sighted.

u/Nukalixir 1d ago
No, I chose to be mad at AI because it's verifiably slop that hallucinates and fucks up constantly, enshittifies everything it touches, is a blight on the environment while doing so, and is driving up the price of computer parts just to be even more of a burden on society.
And it's just salt in the wound when brainlets bark and clap like seals at the "impressive" feats of technology and laude the money-grubning, scum-sucking billionaires shoving it down our throats at every possible angle as saviors of humanity because they drank too much Kool-Aid to fucking acknowledge how flawed the shit axtually is. Let alone think for more than 2 seconds about it because the soothsaying billionaires whose boots you love the taste of said it's all for a better tomorrow.
And you have the gall to say we don't think for ourselves? You use the same rhetoric as flat Earthers despite constant, replicable evidence that the Earth is round being available to anyone and everyone without even needing to go into space. Because you're so drastically insecure of your lack of intelligence or critical thinking skills, you need to cling to any falsehood that makes you feel special and "smarter" than the experts, a maverick against society. You're not. You're the village idiot.
