    [off topic]

    Isaac Asimov was a professional writer long before he entered his doctorate program. When he was writing his thesis he was advised to try to make it sound like it had been written by a chemist and not an author.

    To practice ‘scientific’ style writing he wrote a comic piece.

    The Endochronic Properties of Resublimated Thiotimoline

    When he went for his orals, the last question was to explain the exact nature of Thiotimoline.

    Looks like someone has set their GPT’s tone sarcastic lol

      I disagree with this comment only because it is building and bolstering the precedent that everyone is using these models all the time and every written thing is generated from an LLM, even when there is no evidence to support it.

      The various grammar errors and random capitalizations push toward “human” and the only support for it being LLMgen’d is the fact that it is poetic.

        I’m skeptical just because their email signature changes - I haven’t touched mine in years, so why does Prof. Kutaywa go from being first supervisor to just supervisor?

    No matter how bad the writing was, this is not a good thesis supervisor! It’s funny to read the sassy reply, but I’d hate this professor…

    Even doctoral students are still students and are there to learn.

    A better review would have been something like “There are severe issues with the structure of the text” and then refer to an external resource on technical writing…

        I’m fine with you posting more but it would’ve been cool to have them in one big post - you can insert images into the body of a post (where you might usually put text commmentary) and it formats quite nicely

      I’m invested. I was on board with the rainbow tables but now I’m having a crisis. A Crisis of Faith.

    You forgot to blur out a fairly distinctive name.
