I have had the rare privilege to see up close examples of how at several US universities, when professors are presented with irrefutable proof that a student has cheated (well beyond any reasonable doubt) the professor will most often do no

I have friends that started a startup trying to tackle this problem. They actually found ways for certain types of exams in certain subjects to make cheating exponentially harder and also provide less of an advantage, so much so that if the

It evaluates the process the student used to write the essay, not only the final result. It makes it transparent to the professor. So the professor will see the student typed it out word for word. this is in contrast to an authentic essay w

Re-reading my original reply and your response and I think we had a misunderstanding. I never intended to make you feel assured with my post. I was trying to communicate that the features the product provides could help you feel assured tha

Their approach is to bring maximum transparency into the process the student used to write the essay, rather than the final result. I don't really see how it's about an AI vs anti-ai arms race. It's not my company and I'

I am not the founder. Also I pointed out they track user actions and keystrokes and analyze them, which is clearly distinct from just pasting the students work into an LLM and asking if it was generated by AI. I'll go further to say th

Hey there is a company examind.io that has a product that lets you assign writing assignments for students to do on their own time in their UI that runs in the browser, and it tracks every keystroke and interaction by the student and analyz

I agree that the labels Paul used already carry meaning that confuses what I think Paul is really trying to point out. I also agree that it's really hard to tell whether someone is capable of leading in "founder mode", and to

I think you got it in your last paragraph. Absolutely NOT social consensus as axioms, as that will result in stagnation and tyranny. Instead we must progress gradually one axiom at a time through reasoning and experimentation. Truth is not

In the most extreme acute situations I have broken down to tears purely from over-stimulation from socializing. Specifically when attending conferences for work. (I am an introvert). After a day of intense socializing I will go back to a ho

So, your point is because we get better at logic and reasoning over time (better today than 100 years ago), that logic and reasoning aren't valid ways to progress towards truth? If this isn't your point, what is? Just that you don

So your moral compass isn't based on compassion or ethical reasoning, it's just based on social consensus? So I guess you would have been fine with being a concentration camp guard, rounding up Jews and putting them in the oven be

There is actually sound ethical reasoning for why rape is bad, that doesn't rely on social consensus. Truth isn't one fundamental thing, truth is what works . There are places in the world today that the social consensus is it&

You're right, I think I mixed up which comment I was responding to. I stand by my point but will add nuance that I get the sense you already know, that unconditional support doesn't mean unconditional coddling. Unconditional suppo

There are two flaws in this recommendation: Assumption that time spent playing Roblox at his age is a waste. (None of us know if this is true) And that there should be conditions on your support and love.

I think we might be conflating meaning, importance, 3rd party benefit, and satisfaction (at least). I'm not advocating for anyone to stay in what they feel is a bullshit job while trying to fake some perception of meaning. If you'
