Comment on College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourself

  At least yours were taught by actual people.

  My girlfriend showed me recently that one of her profs made an AI clone of himself (voice and visual) and distributed prerecorded lessons that way. Who knows if he’s even writing the script for it. Probably not.

    Did the professor willingly do this? Around/after COVID a lot of universities were forcibly claiming the lectures recorded by teachers in previous semesters as their own IP so they could lay them off. Wouldn’t surprise me if it’s yet another cost cutting measure.

      During covid when I was recording lectures I tried to make them fun and silly and it would take me like 3-4 hours to record and edit. The art is gone.

      Looks like academics should be unionizing.

    probably used AI to write his own script, lol.

  or adjunt professors who would rather do research, which is about the same thing tenures do anyways.
