- kridsdale1 5mo agoWhen my dad got his Computer science degree at Queens University (Ontario) in the late 1970s, there was an entire faculty-sized building on campus with no windows and few doors. This wasn’t just the CompSci department, the building WAS the computer.

- pjc50 5mo agoUniversities are struggling to prevent their students using AI, because it makes both learning and evaluation extremely difficult.
- davrosthedalek 5mo agoThis. It's extremely frustrating, AI can be a 24/7 tutor, but too many students use it to do their work instead. We have to really rethink how and what we teach, and how we evaluate. Scoring (non-handwritten) homework is pointless, even contra-productive (because it incentivizes cheating, even for the students who don't want to, just to not be outscored by the cheaters). Hand-written homework means the students at least have to have read the work once... And soon, with AI glasses, even in-classroom tests will be difficult.
