I’m on the middle of my CS Degree, and seems that every assignment I need to use a LLM, or is because short deadlines or the people in your group use LLM and without critical thinking of it. Some teachers seems to be fine with that, however my experience is that we make complex essays and complex class diagrams, a lot of code, however no one seems to understand or learn form what they are making and wend defending their work only can do it by reading a resume the LLM made, that make me hopeless and unmotivated. I what is yours experience and opinions on this matter?
P.S. Sorry for any grammar error with English, is not my main language. About AI I am not fully against AI. The Local LLM installed on my machine is helpful for a few things, but the amount that we are using on CS seems too much.
Having an LLM do anyone’s job for them is a bit of a cartoon example. There are very few jobs it can do in its entirety. It’s about to what degree one uses it to help with their work. Nothing wrong with having assistance for as long as it actually helps you do your job better. I’ve had one solve multiple technical problems/questions for me but I still need to do the work myself because an LLM can’t even turn a wrench.
You say this, but I’ve seen a scary number of people who do outsource as much of their job to LLMs as possible
As much as is possible, yes, but that’s still far from AI doing all or even most of it. It still needs a ton of managing from the user to produce anything even half acceptable as an output.
I personally just spent an hour turning this SketchUp screenshot into a presentable design plan. It’s far from set and forget. It needs the user to hold its hand all the way through the process.
