...whose published work on the essay's subject you can cite?

[–] Guilherme@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think of AI regurgitating content from the Facebook page of a normie - like it was an essay.

Evaluation of Weekend Minecraft-Driven Beer Eating and Hamburgher Drinking under the Limitations of Simpsology - Pages 3.1416 to 999011010

Do you mean that you think a student not using an AI might do that by accident? Otherwise I'm not sure how it's relevant that there might be a real person with that name.

[–] Guilherme@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

No, of course not. I was talking about a student using an AI that fails at realizing there's nothing academically relevant that relates to his name, so instead of acknowledging the failure or omitting such detail in its answer, it stubbornly uses whichever relates to that name even if out-of-context.
