"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I got mine 10 years later and it was the same. We had to type out papers and projects, but exams were handwritten. Being an engineering major certainly lent itself to that as typing out your work in a math problem sucks, especially when it includes diagrams. But humanities exams were also predominantly pen and paper, often using standardized essay booklets that were provided by the proctor.

I think that that's the best way to handle it. It can be properly supervised for cheating and minimizes distractions. Also, holy crap I'd hate to take a statics or dynamics or calc exam on a computer
