- willvarfar 3y agoThe threads show that ChatGPT claims to have written anything if you ask it to. So it really doesn't matter what the student submits, ChatGPT will claim it?
- eloisius 3y agoIndeed there’s one screenshot showing ChatGPT claim it wrote the professor’s email. How embarrassing.
- flutas 3y ago> This doesn’t sound like he’s failing the entire class. In the email he also says "I am giving everyone in the class an X." > X (grade not submitted): If you do not assign a grade, an “X” defined as “grade not submitted” is automatically assigned. No student can graduate with an “X” on his/her academic record. I think the term "fails" is wrong in the title, but he is essentially blocking them from graduating at this time.
- NotYourLawyer 3y agoI was reading that X as a variable, not a particular grade. As in, your grade is X, where X can be A, B, C, D, or F.
- flutas 3y agoYeah, College grades for transcripts are a bit different in that you typically will have the standard range (A-F), but then you have other "status" grades. The ones I know of are: P: Pass (no actual grade, just pass or fail for some classes) F: Fail (no actual grade, just pass or fail for some classes) I: Incomplete (usually a medical or family related emergency) N: Delayed (usually for internships where you get feedback after a normal grade is posted) X: Not submitted (explained above) W: Withdrawn (student withdrew from the course, usually no impact to GPA just a mark for some colleges who only allow N number of chances at a course)
- NotYourLawyer 3y agoAre these standardized across all colleges? It’s been a looong time since college and I have no particular memory of this stuff.
- mjhay 3y agoThe next assignment will be run through ChatGPT as well, with presumably the same results - resulting in failure and escalation to the academic dishonesty office.
- kevviiinn 3y agoSounds like the professor is the dishonest one here
- willvarfar 3y agoHanlon's razor "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity" applies. This is an ignorant professor, not a dishonest one?
- mjhay 3y agoIt can be both stupidity and dishonesty. To me, this reads like him doing something dumb initially, and then digging his heels in to avoid looking stupid or weak.
