Teacher saved himself some time by using a chatbot to make a slideshow presentation for a staff meeting. Good!
Teachers use chatbots for everything else, uncritically. Not good!
- SpaceNoodled 1y agoIf you can't be bothered to assemble information to present, why should I bother to waste my time staring at a pile of slop?
- Meekro 1y agoIf I had a choice about whether to give the presentation, I would choose not to. If you had a choice about whether to attend it, you would also choose not to. But, alas, both of us are there -- such is the way of the large bureaucracy.
- exe34 1y agoI do have a choice to zone out and think of England.
- crinkly 1y agoI think the real problems are that knowing when to use something appropriately and holding yourself honestly to that are pretty difficult for most people.
- exe34 1y agoNo, if you can type in a prompt, just email me the prompt so I know what you intended. I don't need the slop the AI came up with, thank you. I already feel disrespected in powerpoint presentations where they clearly haven't practiced it for a long time and seem to be discovering the slides and coming up with the argument they want to make on the spot. I usually get up and leave.
- halgir 1y agoThere is a middle ground between artisanal powerpoint craftsmanship and AI slop.
- AIPedant 1y ago??? [the slideshow] was missing important tested material, repetitive, and just totally airy and meaningless. Just slide after slide of the same handful of sentences rephrased with random loosely related stock photos. Who cares if he saved himself some time when he completely wasted everyone else's time?
- prmoustache 1y agoHe should have questionned himself if that meeting was relevant in the first place. Nothing good came out of that meeting apparently.
- jmogly 1y agoSlop should be consumed directly not shared with friends, family, or coworkers
