Same here. Got a buzz every 10-20 minutes all night long. Assuming there must be some attack of microsoft that fucked their spam filters
To me the whole point is these ais taught themselves to play. If you just go plug up mistakes like this, you are ironically, dumbing down the AI.
The ai should figure it out if exposed enough one would hope.
Hotmail??
Remember the joke about typing in hotmale.com instead? Pretty sure thousands of people came up with that joke on their own over the early internet days.
Gmail didnāt exist when I created my Hotmail account.
My e-mail hierarchy goes 1) Gmail for my main account - the one I actually use to send and receive e-mail plus use for important accounts like medical and financial stuff. 2) Hotmail - for online shopping and other unimportant accounts - tons of spam, 3) AOL - really old account, ldo, that I only ever used for really spammy shit, 4) Yahoo - account I created a few years ago for Yahoo DFS and now occasionally use if I need a burner-esque e-mail address.
Itās always fun to give the first exam of the semester and see like 10 faces that Iāve almost certainly never seen in my life.

Let us know how they do.
How the people Iāve never seen do? I wonāt be able to segregate them because I didnāt keep track of their names.
Overall vibe for the first section seems to be negative. As is common, Iāve already had a student ask to meet with me after turning in their exam. That usually is the precursor to the, āI feel like I come to class and understand the material, but I know I just bombed the exam and I donāt know what happened, and Iām not sure if I should drop the class, and I want to better understand how to learn the material.ā
One thing that was odd in the first section:
I make 2 different versions of the exam, where each version has the same questions but the question parameters are slightly different. So one versionās Q1 might use a 6% discount rate, while another uses a 5% discount rate. But there shouldnāt be any difference in difficulty across the two versions at all - even on the multiple choice problems, the available (incorrect) answers are calculated exactly the same way based on the parameters.
But in the first section, the first 6 students to finish all had Version A of the exam, and almost no one with Version B finished early. This is making me think I screwed something up when converting from Version A (the exam I created from scratch) to Version B. Weāll see.
Hey, at least it tripped your radar and you are aware. Most teachers wouldnāt give a fuck.

You sounds like you hate FREEDOM!
Do you record your classes? My university (Australia) did and I definitely went a whole semester without showing up (was barely even living in the city the university was in for most of that time).
Tyranny!

Looks more like suburban hellscape in this particular case, but Iām not opposed to recategorizing the entire state.
I do record them. Thatās something that started during peak COVID, where the school didnāt want to encourage people to come to class while sick. But now I donāt think Iām supposed to be doing it anymore. I think itās pretty convenient for students, so Iāll probably keep doing it until someone finds out/tells me not to.
