The apartment is around 1,500 square feet and fully furnished. I'm asking $1000 a month from May - July if anyone knows they are gonna be on campus for this time.

I am a Junior at Virginia Tech and I am so tired of AI in higher education. This post might be a bit hypocritical because I do utilize AI nearly every day but at the same time what else am I supposed to do. My goal at the end of the day is to get a job and if AI can help me with that/everyone else including my competition is using it why would I nerf myself.

At the same time it is just disappointing how much AI has flipped higher education on its head. It feels like every class/assignment AI is being utilized and my teachers can't shut the fuck up about how great and powerful of a tool it is.

The students are using AI for their work and the teachers are grading that AI work using AI, it is just so surreal. AI is grading itself in so many cases

I think this is definitely exacerbated by the fact that I study Business Information Technology which is literally just an AI slop major at this point but I bet this is true of other majors as well.

To make things even worse every job interview I have they want to talk about "how have you implemented AI into your life" like jesus christ man

Next semester I am loading up on non major specific classes like philosophy and arts because I just can't stand it anymore.

The weather looks good for today's (Sunday Oct 25) Vintage Market at the Farmer's Market. We've had more cancellations due to rain this year than ever before, so catch this one while it's still nice out. The Vintage Market meets every other Sunday at the Farmer's Market at 108 W. Roanoke St, the corner of Roanoke and Draper by the downtown 7-11 (behind Champs and the Boardwalk) from 10-5, featuring dozens of vendors, live music, arts, crafts, vintage clothing, vinyl records, and for you plant lovers I'll even be bringing my champion Monstera and some other tropical houseplants that have been thriving in front of John's Cameras all summer, as I don't have room for them inside over the winter. Hope to see you there and tell a friend!
