   Wow, Bard is giving my students much harsher grades than I am.

     Maybe I should just offer a deal: if you use AI to write what you turn into me, I'll use AI to grade it

     @pospi I totally get it.

     But I also think it is giving up on something important.

     What is writing for if not communicating to at least one human?

     If life is going to be AIs talking to each other, we should just link up APIs and call it a day.

     Oh, and thrive-able wages for all work.

     @ntnsndr My friend says they don't have time in the day to mark every essay themselves. Besides, they're underpaid. They say that some essays have the flavour of generated content. But *shrug* they don't have time nor capability to check- so; copy, paste, repeat...

     @ntnsndr literally what a friend of mine who lectures for a vocational tertiary institution is doing.

     Students have given positive feedback on their feedback, claiming it feels "more objective than they're used to". I suppose there's something in that- AI doesn't get tired or go partying the night before or have bad days, it's probably more consistent over time.
