My friend (acquaintance maybe) who is a language teacher told me he used a “Resume Generator” to make his resume for him earlier this week.

A resume is the easiest shit ever, it’s one page, and you know all of the information that should be on it. This “language teacher” had to use an LLM to make his, because he’s a dumb lazy bitch.

I feel bad for any kids who end up with such a worthless instructor… I honestly hope he doesn’t find work, the kids deserve better.

    That's an awfully harsh assessment. People are being encouraged to do this sort of thing and as a language teacher why not get a first draft done for you?

    The real test of whether it is pitiful it is if that person took what was given and ran with it rather than review and modify it.

    If society is demanding people know how to use AI, it would be stupid of a teacher not to do so themselves, because they have to teach how to use it.

    Once again, the key is how one uses AI, not if one uses AI.

    They asked me how to modify a pdf because there was a typo

    I said you just change the typo in the original document and then remake the pdf

    They said they couldn’t do that, because they didn’t have the source document, because they made it with a “resume generator”

    I said “What’s a resume generator? Like an LLM wrote it for you?” They said “I don’t know”.

    So yeah, they just took the LLM output and ran with it, only changing one typo.

    No one pressured them to do this, they did it of their own volition, and it is pathetic.

    No one except for AI companies wants teachers to use AI, they're explicitly supposed to stop students from relying on it, and this fool can’t even recognize an LLM while using it themselves

    The only people pushing the use of LLMs are the people who profit from their use, moronic CEOs, and people who can’t understand simple concepts like sentience.

    This teacher is a lazy dumbass. You can call me harsh if you want, but I see myself as a realist, harsh or otherwise.

    About the only time I have been like 'Yeah alright, I get it' is if you have a sort of writers block. Get a rough draft spat out but then bounce of that, but do not rely on LLM junk for anything more than that.
