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.

In the last 24 hours a vibe coded game launcher has leaked personal information and Outlook is down worldwide (likely due to some LLM-generated flaw).

"We've monitored the status of the changes applied to improve serviceability and confirmed they're not taking as expected," Microsoft said on X around 0300 GMT, without saying when service was expected to be back to normal.

When was the last time Outlook was down for a day? What are they going to do to fix it after offshoring their brain to Copilot? “Please, Copilot, unfuck Outlook! 😢”

Every day we hear about an LLM that deleted data for no apparent reason.

If this is the future, then the future is Idiocracy.

And the point of university isn’t to prepare prompt engineers. It’s to prepare students to make contributions to the advancement of arts and sciences.

LLMs take the argument of “I have a calculator why do I need to learn math?” to the extreme where we’re now burning math textbooks and blindly obeying the calculator when it says to eat one rock a day.
