I’m in postgrad study at the moment and the amount of university students that rely on ChatGPT for 80%+ of their assignment/project work has really shaken my trust in the current gen coming out of higher education.

This is after the unit lecturers have each belaboured the point that GenAI must be 'used responsibly and with care to triple-check any output is valid and understood - and that any confirmed plagiarism or hallucinated references are an ‘instant zero’ on assignments.

They don’t care. It’s easier than reading textbooks and thinking.

I swear I don’t understand college students who work so hard not to learn.

It’s like they want to get as little education for their money as possible.

College used to be optional. Most people didn’t go, you went there because you wanted to learn, or you wanted to go into a particular field that required higher knowledge.

Now, college is just a paywall that gets in the way of having a normal job that can pay you an ok amount of money if you’re lucky. This is especially true now for when it comes to the prerequisites. Kids aren’t there for knowledge. It’s so they can get a job. No one cares about those college level English courses being forced on them when they’re going to end up as middle management at an insurance agency. Especially now, when their PC will tell them their grammar sucks before they send out that email.
