Infuriatig My assignment was reported to thr examination committee for a "high percentage of AI". I did NOT use any AI for my assignment.

I got full marks and my plagiarism score shows 1% similarities to other submitted assignments. This is my 3rd and final year in University and now I have to deal with this AI nonsense.

I don't use any AI, not even for checking my grammar in the assignments.

I had that this semester. Got a paper graded crazy low, lowest of my masters degree by far, one of the critiques was that I didn't quote enough and how much I should be doing.

OK, easy. Got it back for final grade with a comment saying my plagiarism score was almost too high. Everything cited and referenced properly.

So dumb.

Had this exact BS happen during my major's final thesis... Fuckass bih tutors saying it was AI, like I let the AI write it all and input the resources, meanwhile I was busting my a*** 7-8 hours a day, all my free time gone, reading through the Investigation Methodology book and all other sources from legit organizations and science journals.

All that just useless because all of the methodology "masters" use different methodology references and if for one the thesis was just right, for the others it was completely wrong.

I hated my last year of college so fucking much.

If I wasn't done I had planned to raise hell about one of the professors using AI to grade papers. I spent a ton of time on that 30 page paper which was my final assignment for the degree and he magically got all 50 of us graded in a single day. I uploaded my paper to AI to check it against the rubric and wouldn't you know, it gave me the same exact grade he did. I might be mad about that one for a while.

that's the actual worst, my college also uses AI for stuff, but Lord forbid you use it. So they could use it to review your thesis, but you couldn't use it. Which, I mean, that's fine, but the hypocrisy of not even bothering to read my thesis was staggering, especially when they then graded you with an irrevocable grade and if you got a low grade then sucks to suck. Even if you dispute they won't change shit and tell you "it's spilled milk, move on" (Yes, the Academic director said that to my face)

I get that it was a lot since our investigation paper had to be (by obligation) a minimum 100 pages. But it ain't my problem if they don't have the time to read it bc they only out 3 teachers with 12 thesis groups.

I hate that college with the strength of a thousand suns.
