How can I convince fellow lazy students that they shouldn't need chatbots to help them learn? (self.fuck_ai)

My high school is known for being sweaty because it has IB but also people use AI all the time here, to the extent that “chatgpt” is used as a verb. Unfortunately my classmates just want to get through their work as easily and possible and grab the diploma.

I tried to convince several people to not use AI or at LEAST use a different one from chatgpt, but I generally only got good results from people who were not taking very difficult classes. The more popular lot of Advanced Learning people even brushed me off as a “larper” when I tried talking to them about this.

How should I get more people to be willing to see chatgpt as something besides the easy way?

Life is a gamble... for now you feel like you don't need it but eventually the HR algorithms are going to put a ceiling there just because you don't have a diploma. Working under someone who stopped thinking when they graduated or used AI to cheat can be miserable.

FWIW some people recommend getting a minimum-effort degree... but I would advocate taking advantage of the detour and studying something interesting (which may mean getting an MS). YMMV.
