Is it invisible to accessibility options as well? Like if I need a computer to tell me what the assignment is, will it tell me to do the thing that will make you think I cheated?
Disability accomodation requests are sent to the professor at the beginning of each semester so he would know which students use accessibility tools
Ok but will those students also be deceived?
Maybe if homework can be done by statistics, then it's not worth doing.
Maybe if a "teacher" has to trick their students in order to enforce pointless manual labor, then it's not worth doing.
Schools are not about education but about privilege, filtering, indoctrination, control, etc.
I wish more teachers and academics would do this, because I"m seeing too many cases of "That one student I pegged as not so bright because my class is in the morning and they're a night person, has just turned in competent work. They've gotta be using ChatGPT, time to report them for plagurism. So glad that we expell more cheaters than ever!" and similar stories.
Even heard of a guy who proved he wasn't cheating, but was still reported anyway simply because the teacher didn't want to look "foolish" for making the accusation in the first place.
For those that didn't see the rest of this tweet, Frankie Hawkes is in fact a dog. A pretty cute dog, for what it's worth.
Ah yes, pollute the prompt. Nice. Reminds me of how artists are starting to embed data and metadata in their pieces that fuck up AI training data.
And all maps have fake streets in them so you can tell when someone copied it
Easily by thwarted by simply proofreading your shit before you submit it
But that's fine than. That shows that you at least know enough about the topic to realise that those topics should not belong there. Otherwise you could proofread and see nothing wrong with the references
Is it? If ChatGPT wrote your paper, why would citations of the work of Frankie Hawkes raise any red flags unless you happened to see this specific tweet? You'd just see ChatGPT filled in some research by someone you hadn't heard of. Whatever, turn it in. Proofreading anything you turn in is obviously a good idea, but it's not going to reveal that you fell into a trap here.
If you went so far as to learn who Frankie Hawkes is supposed to be, you'd probably find out he's irrelevant to this course of study and doesn't have any citeable works on the subject. But then, if you were doing that work, you aren't using ChatGPT in the first place. And that goes well beyond "proofreading".
This should be okay to do. Understanding and being able to process information is foundational
LLMs can't cite. They don't know what a citation is other than a collection of text of a specific style
You'd be lucky if the number of references equalled the number of referenced items even if you were lucky enough to get real sources out of an LLM
If the student is clever enough to remove the trap reference, the fact that the other references won't be in the University library should be enough to sink the paper
LLMs can't cite. They don't know what a citation is other than a collection of text of a specific style
LLMs can cite. It's called Retrival-Augmented Generation. Basically LLM that can do Information Retrival, which is just academic term for search engines.

You can just print retrival logs into references. Well, kinda stretching definition of "just".
They can. There was that court case where the cases cited were made up by chatgpt. Upon investigation it was discovered it was all hallucinated by chatgpt and the lawyer got into deep crap
There are professional cheaters and there are lazy ones, this is gonna get the lazy ones.
I wouldn't call "professional cheaters" to the students that carefully proofread the output. People using chatgpt and proofreading content and bibliography later are using it as a tool, like any other (Wikipedia, related papers...), so they are not cheating. This hack is intended for the real cheaters, the ones that feed chatgpt with the assignment and return whatever hallucination it gives to you without checking anything else.
