. . . it didn't pass the grammar quiz. I spent about 30 minutes with a tech support staff member at The Ohio State University yesterday and finally have reinstated my password, which needs to be frequently updated. While I was browsing, I saw the department offered a quiz on AI with 12 questions and the "chance" for a prize. It's intended for OSU faculty and students who will be using AI tools in research. I answered the 12 questions correctly and read the explanations about why the answer was right (important since I was guessing). However, I did suspect whoever wrote it needed to proof her work. For instance. "What is a important to consider?" That sentence had at least 2 errors--the "a" should be "an," and "important" is an adjective modifying a missing noun. Also, the singular nouns such as person or teacher or researcher were followed by they/them/their but I think that is a concession to woke and is probably the standard lest we leave out a woman or a trans-something, or even a furry, in the discussion,

I keep seeing all this gloom & doom about AI taking jobs. I know it has, if only because companies are firing people so they have more funds to develop AI. But as far as AI itself being competent enough to actually do anything? I haven’t seen any evidence of it!
PS: Happy Thanksgiving!
