what class are you in that "producing output at a [rapid] pace" is relevant to the grade?

pick any cs class

I have a minor in CS and no -producing the assignment by the deadline is important- grades are not based on quantity of code vs classmates.

I mean, maybe things have changed (I finished college about 20 years ago), but I don't remember producing large volumes of stuff as being a particularly important part of a CS degree.

Between a challenging job market, increasing new frontiers of learning (AI, MLops, parallel hardware) and an average mind like mine, a tool that increases throughput is likely to be adopted by masses, whether you like it or not and quality is not a concern for most, passing and getting an A is (most of my professors actively encourage to use LLMs for reports/code generation/presentations)

It will be a very interesting experiment when your generation of computer science graduates enters the job market, to put it mildly.

Individuals believe they act freely, but they are constrained and directed by historical forces beyond their awareness - Leo Tolstoy

Historical forces beyond your awareness cannot force you to submit mountains of slop.

slop is not a thing anymore, stop living in a fantasy world

What are you talking about? Slop existed long before AI and it will exist long after.

Remember, you chose this. You chose not to learn, to offload your thinking in the name of competition.

The last one already killed unique web designs, killed flash, gave us us soulless flat design and electron bloat.

They'll have to work pretty hard to outdo that!

That was never a worry in any of my CS classes.

My brother is a CS student and he is pretty much in the same boat.

Copying AI slop isn’t producing output! It’s also not conducive to learning

As if you are just a such a genius the models are of no use to you.

How can you not think that makes you sound like a complete moron?

I guess I really am just that much smarter than you.

I would urge you to leverage some critical thinking, re-read what I stated, and identify where I said that the models are of no use to me. If the ability to think for yourself without AI assistance hasn't fully atrophied on your end you may be able to see that you are the moron in this thread.
