there is no LLM involved in ryven's comment:

open assignment
select text
copy text
create text-i-will-turn-in.doc
paste text without formatting
work in this document, scrolling up to look at the assignment again
fall for the "trap" and search like an idiot for anything relevant to assignment + frankie hawkes, since no formatting

i hope noone is dependent on your reading comprehension mate, or i'll have some bad news

lmao fuck off, why put so much effort into defending the bullshit machines?

EDIT: I honestly didnt even read your comment, too much time wasted arguing with bota and techbros, but if you mean to try to explain the user meant copying the assignment instructions then said user should never have used the word "prompt" in this context to begin with.

Damn, if you're this stupid I understand why you're scared of the machines.

No one in this thread is talking about or "defending" LLMs but you.

[–] BatmanAoD 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Holy shit, "prompt" is not primarily an AI word. I get not reading an entire article or essay before commenting, but maybe you should read an entire couple of sentences before making a complete ass of yourself for multiple comments in a row. If you can't manage that, just say nothing! It's that easy!

[–] finitebanjo -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I stand by everything that I have said. LLM AI is garbage, anybody who uses it for work or school is a garbage human being who needs removal from position, and if that commenter meant to say instructions but instead wrote prompt then they made a mistake.

[–] BatmanAoD 1 points 1 day ago

The word "prompt" is used correctly here:

My college workflow was to copy the prompt and then "paste without formatting" in Word and leave that copy of the prompt at the top while I worked, I would absolutely have fallen for this. :P

That's the comment you originally responded to. It's two sentences (with a comma splice) and very clearly has nothing to do with AI.

Misreading this and misunderstanding it, as simple as it is, is embarrassing but understandable. Commenting "I hope you lose your degree" because you can't read 28 words of text without drawing completely the wrong conclusion is, again, embarrassing, but not dire.

Arguing in multiple comment threads about it, while your misunderstanding is repeatedly and clearly explained to you, and then saying you "stand by" all of this, makes it clear that you are a complete idiot.

I feel nothing but pity for how stupid you are acting right now. Read it all again and see if you can work it out.
