Reddit refugee here.
…I just want an aggregation of different news sources that isn’t run by Nazis. Apparently a tall order on today’s internet. Kbin looks promising!
So, bigoted opinions? Yeah those should be banned.
If we’re talking about whether or not you like pineapples on pizza, no one gives a damn which way you lean.
If we’re talking about human rights, there’s a very clear wrong answer. If your ‘opinion’ falls on the Nazi side of that aisle, this might be your cue to ask yourself “are we the baddies?”
What opinion?
Nursing student here. Quizlet has an AI function that lets you paste text into it and it outputs a studyset.
Most of my classes provide a study guide of some kind - just a list of topics we need to be familiar with. I’ll take those and plug em into the AI thing: bam! Instantly generate like 200 flash cards to study for the next test.
It even auto-fills the actual subject matter. For example, the study guide will say sometime like “Summarize Louis Pasteur’s contributions to the field of microbiology” and turn that into a flash card that reads:
(front)
Louis Pasteur
(back)
Verified the germ theory of disease
Developed a method to prevent the spoilage of liquids through heating (pasteurization)
Developed early anthrax and rabies vaccines
So I take my list of AI generated cards, then sift through the powerpoints and lecture videos etc from class: instead of building the study set from scratch, all I have to do is verify that the information it spit out is accurate (so far it’s been like 98% on target, often explaining concepts better than the actual professor, lol), add images, and play with the formatting a bit so it reads a little easier on the eyes.
People always talk about AI in school in the context of cheating, but it is RIDICULOUSLY useful for students actually trying to learn.
Looking ahead, this tech has a ton of potential to be used as a kind of personal tutor for each student. There will be some growing pains for sure, but we definitely shouldn’t ignore its constructive potential.
You’re conflating disagreeing with behaving like a Nazi. I don’t give a fuck what was acceptable back in your day. Today we draw the line at human rights If you get butthurt at being ridiculed for lamenting at the opposition you face when you try to marginalize other groups, then keep that shit to yourself. Or better yet, make an effort to actually get to know some people from the groups you’re directing hatred at - might find you actually start caring about them, and suddenly their rights will mean more to you than the pushback you get for posting slurs online
