Do you think your followers have headcanons about you

Or do you as a follower have headcanons about a person you follow?

my one gripe about the books being from lucy’s perspective is that she could not care less about george’s research and regularly tunes him out/cuts him off and i am desperate to read every single thing george has discovered

art i want to take apart like a toaster and art i want to dip my hands in the ones and zeroes like a great big tub of plastic beads that look like candy and art i want to peel like string cheese and art i want to cannonball into with my floaties left on the sunchair and art i want to mri and lick the layers off and art i need to director's commentary of every line and shade and art that was made of experience after experience of practice after practice of connection after connection and i need to know how all the molecules are arranged and art that is so you that even with the serial numbers filed off your love would live in it and your breath and your desire and your frustration and your ache to be heard in every pixel and you made that yourself and now it exists and the world is more for it

thank you

There are ways in which you can use ChatGPT in university that actually helps you learn. If you are stuck on a problem for too long, you can ask how to handle such a problem. I have questioned ChatGPT about isolated singularities until I got a satisfying explanation for the thing I struggled to wrap my head around. This was not to cheat my way around the homework, this was having access to a personal tutor when my actual tutors were out of reach. It‘s an amazing ressource if you wanr assistance learning. But you have to learn to ask the right questions and to question the wrong answers. Because it will give you wrong answers as well. And you have to see that when it happens. If you use Generative AI this way, it is actually an incredibly powerful tool for your learning.

I just started grad school this fall after a few years away from school and man I did not realize how dire the AI/LLM situation is in universities now. In the past few weeks:

I chatted with a classmate about how it was going to be a tight timeline on a project for a programming class. He responded "Yeah, at least if we run short on time, we can just ask chatGPT to finish it for us"

One of my professors pulled up chatGPT on the screen to show us how it can sometimes do our homework problems for us and showed how she thanks it after asking it questions "in case it takes over some day."

I asked one of my TAs in a math class to explain how a piece of code he had written worked in an assignment. He looked at it for about 15 seconds then went "I don't know, ask chatGPT"

A student in my math group insisted he was right on an answer to a problem. When I asked where he got that info, he sent me a screenshot of Google gemini giving just blatantly wrong info. He still insisted he was right when I pointed this out and refused to click into any of the actual web pages.

A different student in my math class told me he pays $20 per month for the "computational" version of chatGPT, which he uses for all of his classes and PhD research. The computational version is worth it, he says, because it is wrong "less often". He uses chatGPT for all his homework and can't figure out why he's struggling on exams.

There's a lot more, but it's really making me feel crazy. Even if it was right 100% of the time, why are you paying thousands of dollars to go to school and learn if you're just going to plug everything into a computer whenever you're asked to think??

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
