Depends on the university policy. To me, I don't see any difference between certain AI use and plagiarism. And plagiarism ought to result in expulsion.

As an instructor, however, it is increasingly difficult being 100% certain someone is using an LLM. While the easy spot is usually shorter paragraphs and a final hedging paragraph (the one paragraph that OpenAI included so they won't be liable if shit goes south), there is still no way to be sure.

So instead, I just have to begrudgingly nod along as my engineering students dump awful, boring AI texts on me.

This season is a bit of a snoozer no doubt. Even 2020 was more fun because the rest of the field was so crazy tight that anyone could get a podium if one of the top 3 had a DNF.

This year the hierarchy is very obvious, so less chance for anything crazy or unexpected happening.

Don't push this off, OP. Check this first. Immediately.

Oh yeah. That super high bar that Hungary and Romania cleared easily...

It's shrödinger's authoritarian Amazon most of the time.

Self-pub authors are terrified of the great hand of Amazon, meanwhile shit like this happens.

It seems like they do have quite an extensive review process, it just takes a long time. Resulting in legitimate authors being punished and bot farmers thriving, I guess.

As a writer, please check out booksprouts or other arc review sites. Indie authors need a ton of help with reviews and you get free books in exchange.

It's a fair exchange, and as someone that only recently got into indie pub books, many of them are actually much better than the indie reputation implies.

I mean to be fair, I imagine when communities were in blackout things were looking dire. I haven't been to reddit since, but I imagine things are pretty much back to normal? So it's clear he can sort of spit on the reddit userbase how much he wants. People will still come back.

Really makes you wonder what sort of operation they've been running at Williams.

Working in project management and even organizational communication, these feel like relatively simple issues to fix. Sure there is cost involved, but compared to producing a car, I feel like the costs would be relatively small.

It just seems like Williams neglected knowledge management. They wouldn't be the first company consisting of primarily engineers to completely ignore anything related to social science.

They're probably overpaying people that do not contribute a ton, eh? Makes me wonder how much the top brass in general earn.

This is clearly not scientifically true. Sure we can argue to what extent linguistic relativity is true, but to say it isn't true at all? That's a pretty hot take.

They are, but change is scary. And many will likely lose their jobs - especially those who refuse to learn how to use it.

It's not all sunshine and rainbows for creatives currently, but it isn't all dystopia either. A regular schmuck could never produce the same work as a professional, even with AI.

Sure, you can pump out a bunch of stuff, and some of it might look really good, but in the end, if you want precision, you're going to want an artist.

I think your logic is slightly flawed. If your driver is aiming to be second best, then they're already spent. You can't have Perez out there looking to be just slightly worse than Max. You want him to think he can win, always hovering in the vicinity, but never offering a real threat (just like Bottas).

I think the reason why Gasly and Albon failed so spectacularly is because they were both told, "don't even try and beat Max, just get close" and they were too inexperienced and insecure to say "fuck that".

If Checo now believes he can't beat Max, that is probably the reason he isn't even close to P2 anymore. Because no matter what he does, he will ascribe his failures to "not being as good as Verstappen".

 

Assuming neither Redbull driver finishes, who is the most likely driver to win a race? Alonso seems like the obvious choice, but with Mercedes looking strong, who knows?

What would happen if Stroll recovers and wins before Alonso? What sort of meltdown are we looking at?

 

I've started running DCC recently, and I am honestly having the time of my life with it. All the issues I had with 5e have vanished up in smoke.

While I do enjoy running premade adventures, I also like creating my own structured one shots that follow a more structured narrative. However, not being an artist, I primarily rely on dungeondraft and maybe even AI art to create my adventures. Is there any interest in this sort of aesthetic if I were to share my adventures? Most of the time, it feels like a big part of the OSR draw is that it keeps to its roots not only in terms of mechanics but also the way it presents itself visually?

Looking to hear some opinions. :)

 

As per the title, when I input an image, and have controlnet create a preview it outputs images like this? I used the lineart preprocessor for this one specifically, but similar things happen with depth as well.

Actually running controlnet obviously does not net the results one would expect either.

Any ideas as to what the issue could be?
