Please. For the love of god, stop the slop.
The University has shifted its messaging and policy to reflect the reality that many forms of assessment can be outsourced to genAI, yet that outsourcing cannot be reliably detected.
That means that you can write many reports or essays without any real fear of running afoul of academic misconduct (if you are even slightly competent).
You can, but you really shouldn't.
If not for the sake of your future abilities then at least for the sake of your marker's sanity.
The stink of slop on your work can't be scrubbed away by a "humanizer" app. The abiding ugliness of AI writing is far more repulsive than any awkward grammar you "polish" away by feeding your work into Anthropic or OpenAI's trash compactor.
It's not saving you work, it's not saving you time, it's not making your work look more academic. It's setting you up for future failure by convincing you that the mid mark it gets you means anything.
Out there, in that terrifying future beyond graduation, there is nothing so thoroughly unremarkable and low value than the ability to ladle up slop. I am observing the way that workplaces are increasingly disdainful of anything that even has a whiff of genAI and that's only going to increase as time goes on.
And even if you get in, and score a job at the ladle, is that really what you want for yourself?
I might delete this post as sentimental and bitter, but I have never met a student who wasn't capable of more than the kind of cardboard that these machines spit out. It's thoroughly depressing to drown in it when I open the LMS, knowing you're all capable of so much better.
I get it: the factors pushing students towards outsourcing like this aren't their fault. They're more mine than yours at least. So don't take this as a moral judgement from the dubious high horse of having to write my own dodgy essays in undergrad.
Do take it as a sincere request that you back yourself and give actually learning a go. Because at this point I'd rather take up trepanning as a hobby than read another ChatGPT authored summary.
