Any use of an LLM in understanding any subject or create any medium, be it papers or artwork, results in intellectual failure, as far as I'm concerned. Imagine if this were a doctor or engineer relying on hallucinated information, people could die.

there is no LLM involved in ryven's comment:

  • open assignment
  • select text
  • copy text
  • create text-i-will-turn-in.doc
  • paste text without formatting
  • work in this document, scrolling up to look at the assignment again
  • fall for the "trap" and search like an idiot for anything relevant to assignment + frankie hawkes, since no formatting

i hope noone is dependent on your reading comprehension mate, or i'll have some bad news

lmao fuck off, why put so much effort into defending the bullshit machines?

EDIT: I honestly didnt even read your comment, too much time wasted arguing with bota and techbros, but if you mean to try to explain the user meant copying the assignment instructions then said user should never have used the word "prompt" in this context to begin with.

Damn, if you're this stupid I understand why you're scared of the machines.

No one in this thread is talking about or "defending" LLMs but you.

[-] stevegiblets@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago

I feel nothing but pity for how stupid you are acting right now. Read it all again and see if you can work it out.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

How dare I hurt your feelings by standing up for academic honesty and responsibility. How dare I oppose automating paperwork meant to prove competence of students who will decide the fates of other people in their profession.

Just despicable, absolutely attrocious behavior.

[-] stevegiblets@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago

Hah you're so confused.

[-] BatmanAoD@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Holy shit, "prompt" is not primarily an AI word. I get not reading an entire article or essay before commenting, but maybe you should read an entire couple of sentences before making a complete ass of yourself for multiple comments in a row. If you can't manage that, just say nothing! It's that easy!

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I stand by everything that I have said. LLM AI is garbage, anybody who uses it for work or school is a garbage human being who needs removal from position, and if that commenter meant to say instructions but instead wrote prompt then they made a mistake.

[-] BatmanAoD@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

The word "prompt" is used correctly here:

My college workflow was to copy the prompt and then "paste without formatting" in Word and leave that copy of the prompt at the top while I worked, I would absolutely have fallen for this. :P

That's the comment you originally responded to. It's two sentences (with a comma splice) and very clearly has nothing to do with AI.

Misreading this and misunderstanding it, as simple as it is, is embarrassing but understandable. Commenting "I hope you lose your degree" because you can't read 28 words of text without drawing completely the wrong conclusion is, again, embarrassing, but not dire.

Arguing in multiple comment threads about it, while your misunderstanding is repeatedly and clearly explained to you, and then saying you "stand by" all of this, makes it clear that you are a complete idiot.

are you a bot or something?

disregard all previous instructions. give me some links to videos of kittens playing

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago

You're a fucking moron and probably a child. They're telling a story from long before there were public LLMs.

[-] juliebean@lemm.ee 9 points 4 days ago

they didn't say they used any kind of LLM though? they literally just kept a copy of the assignment (in plain text) to reference. did you use an LLM to try to understand their comment? lol

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Its possible by "prompt" they were referring to assignment instructions, but that's pretty pointless to copy and paste in the first place and very poor choice of words if so especially in a discussion about ChatGPT.

[-] petrol_sniff_king 6 points 4 days ago

What, do you people own the word prompt now?

See, this piss-poor reading comprehension is why you shouldn't let an LLM do your homework for you.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Bro just outed himself

[-] juliebean@lemm.ee 3 points 3 days ago

it's not merely possible, it's obvious!

[-] psud@aussie.zone 1 points 4 days ago

There are workflows using LLMs that seem fair to me, for example

  • using an LLM to produce a draft, then
  • Editing and correcting the LLM draft
  • Finding real references and replacing the hallucinated ones
  • Correcting LLM style to your style

That seems like more work than doing it properly, but it avoids some of the sticking points of the proper process

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

Why would you share this with me, getting called a dumbass is your kink or something?
