A committee of professors and students spent 5 months studying how AI changed learning on campus, and the findings read like a warning to every university on the planet.
⭕ Study groups are disappearing.
⭕ Office hours are emptying out.
⭕ Problem sets and take-home exams no longer prove anything, because AI can produce credible solutions to almost any written assignment in the undergraduate curriculum.
⭕ Students who lean on chatbots lose mastery and confidence, and some slip into what the report calls cognitive surrender, reaching for AI at the first hint of struggle.
The committee warns MIT professors against replacing undergraduate research assistants with AI agents just because they’re cheaper, because a university exists to grow people, not output.
How do you get the connections to beta test games?
Now, you have to know someone to be referenced if you want to get paid. If you want play games for free, you can always apply for closed or open betas; at lot of times stress tests are needed as well as hardware tests. Then again “early access” has become a bit of a plague to that.
You also get the perk of not reporting glitches. I don’t know if you’ve played World of Warcraft, there was a fun reason they implemented a global cooldown for skills. One reason was you could write a macro to swap weapons and do a backstab or ambush with the slowest blunt weapon possible. Oh the joys of 4k to 8k crits. It was quite a bit of a “solo leveling” dungeon experience. I mean if you think about it, getting
backstabbedrearended with a big blunt mace probably would be a more serious crit than a tiny dagger.
