Perhaps I am a dying breed but the most shocking for me is this opening paragraph:

“Having signed up for OpenAI’s subscription plan, ChatGPT Plus, I used it as an assistant every day — to write e-mails, draft course descriptions, structure grant applications, revise publications, prepare lectures, create exams and analyse student responses, and even as an interactive tool as part of my teaching.“

I don't have any AI acct or used them for anything, and I don't want to

and so I dont need to buy new pippetset, PCR machine, gel doc, behaviour incubators, chemicals, new rigs and rack for ephys...etc I just bought in what is needed and I share them too, Yes, I did not get shining new toys for myself in a newly refurbished space, but I think this is more environmentally friendly approach and more resilient as a provincial univeristy department. #acadamicchatter

at @NeurogeneticsLeicester at #universityofleicester we opeare from legacy sharing policy orginally used to help low grant income intermittent: so when I started I used things from neighbouring labs #acadamicchatter

Hi #acadamicchatter #UKHE folks, wondering if anyone has a good idea to deal with #ChatGPT dilemma on course work assessment ( need to be essay based)? We are reviewing our final year UG assessment, and cannot quite decide to ban or allow ChatGPT? Do we have clear detection tools now for ChatGPT?

I should be writing my thesis. So far I managed to

1. Open the .Rmd file.
2. Copy and paste content from a previous paper I'll use as raw material for the introduction.
3. Stare at it intently for an hour.
4. Post this on mastodon.
