  1. KARMA – YOUR PERSONAL FAnTASY

    Ask ten people what karma means and you get ten answers, none of which goes against them personally. It means whatever the person using it needs it to mean right now. The most popular version of Karma is: be good, get good. The universe is keeping score. Don't worry about the man who cheated you out of your property. He'll get his. Well, he won't. He'll get a second property if he manages the first one well. Then there's the Gita version: do your duty, don't expect results. Great idea, […]

  4. "Most of the writing professors I spoke to told me that it’s abundantly clear when their students use AI. Sometimes there’s a smoothness to the language, a flattened syntax; other times, it’s clumsy and mechanical. The arguments are too evenhanded — counterpoints tend to be presented just as rigorously as the paper’s central thesis. Words like multifaceted and context pop up more than they might normally. On occasion, the evidence is more obvious, as when last year a teacher reported reading a paper that opened with “As an AI, I have been programmed …” Usually, though, the evidence is more subtle, which makes nailing an AI plagiarist harder than identifying the deed. Some professors have resorted to deploying so-called Trojan horses, sticking strange phrases, in small white text, in between the paragraphs of an essay prompt.
    (...)
    Still, while professors may think they are good at detecting AI-generated writing, studies have found they’re actually not. One, published in June 2024, used fake student profiles to slip 100 percent AI-generated work into professors’ grading piles at a U.K. university. The professors failed to flag 97 percent. It doesn’t help that since ChatGPT’s launch, AI’s capacity to write human-sounding essays has only gotten better. Which is why universities have enlisted AI detectors like Turnitin, which uses AI to recognize patterns in AI-generated text. After evaluating a block of text, detectors provide a percentage score that indicates the alleged likelihood it was AI-generated. Students talk about professors who are rumored to have certain thresholds (25 percent, say) above which an essay might be flagged as an honor-code violation. But I couldn’t find a single professor — at large state schools or small private schools, elite or otherwise — who admitted to enforcing such a policy. Most seemed resigned to the belief that AI detectors don’t work."

  7. Finally! Writing this was tougher and took much longer than I thought. The idea was born from an emotion, but touched on so many complex issues. This turned into an essay on the future of Europe and the world I can sometimes dream of.

    I don't know if I want anyone to read this, to be honest. But here it is.

  8. I use hashtags on here a lot.

    But every time I do, I feel so wrong doing so. I'm used to doing it on instagram, so I still just drop the vast majority at the bottom of a post.

    I can't help but be reminded of writing five paragraph essays in middle school and being forced to have quotes we used in-line.

    I refuse to do that in short form, unless the hashtag absolutely fits in-line without question.

    I know nobody cares. I'm just yelling into the void.
