We had a former student come in the other day. She was part of the first year to use AI in class, for their projects. She told us how radical that’d been at the time. Must have been weird. Obviously we’ve using Partners since we were in school: researching, drafting, redrafting, critiquing, prompting. How did previous cohorts manage on their own? She was visiting for our careers day. I think she’d been asked to come in to get us to switch on the University’s Future U AI. I’m not keen. Yeh it’s personalised but I hate the sponsor they’ve got.
