I’m in postgrad study at the moment and the amount of university students that rely on ChatGPT for 80%+ of their assignment/project work has really shaken my trust in the current gen coming out of higher education.
This is after the unit lecturers have each belaboured the point that GenAI must be 'used responsibly and with care to triple-check any output is valid and understood - and that any confirmed plagiarism or hallucinated references are an ‘instant zero’ on assignments.
They don’t care. It’s easier than reading textbooks and thinking.
(All this to say - I don’t think #QuitChatGPT will have much effect on those using it regularly, regardless of their morals)

I swear I don’t understand college students who work so hard not to learn.
It’s like they want to get as little education for their money as possible.
The purpose of college today isn’t to learn, it’s to get a degree.
