I just started grad school this fall after a few years away from school and man | did not realize how dire the A/LLM situation is in universities now. In the past few weeks:
* I chatted with a classmate about how it was going to be a tight timeline on a project for a programming class. He responded "Yeah, at least if we run short on time, we can just ask chatGPT to finish it for us”
* One of my professors pulled up chatGPT on the screen to show us how it can sometimes do our homework problems for us and showed how she thanks it after asking it questions "in case it takes over some day."
* l asked one of my TAs in @ math class to explain how a piece of code he had written worked in an assignment. He looked at it for about 15 seconds then went "I don't know, ask chatGPT"
* A student in my math group insisted he was right on an answer to a problem. When | asked where he got that info, he sent me a screenshot of Google gemini giving just blatantly wrong info. He stillinsisted he was right when | pointed this out and refused to click into any of the actual web pages.
* A different student in my math class told me he pays $20 per month for the “computational” version of chatGPT, which he uses for all of his classes and PhD research. The computational version is worth it, he says, because it is wrong "less often’. He uses chatGPT for all his homework and can't figure out why he's struggling on exams.

Answering some of your questions: the language filtering happens at the preferences level, so if you set it on the preferences it will propagate to clients getting timelines through the API. Filters are an API thing (there are two types, client-side and server-side). User recs is also an API feature.

in reply to modulux • • •Yep, it's true. But I'm not so experienced in WX to change something major in twblue source.
And also for me it is a kind of challenge - developing my own mastodon client.
Kind of a pet project important for my feeling as a developer and gaining some experience in desktop apps.
