Students' classmates at this Michigan university could be AI

Two virtual students, Ann and Fry, will enroll in classes as freshmen during the spring semester.

I hate everything about this

Are we sure the university isn't already run by AI?

whyy

I fucking hate the AI industry it's on sight with the fucking AI people

Oh wonderful more work for instructors and graders on behalf of Not Even People nonsense.

The article does not seem to contain any explanation of what value this will provide to the professors and students interacting with it. Seriously, what's the fucking point here?

This would piss me right the fuck off as an instructor. You’re taking even a tiny bit of my time away from the real humans in my classes who are trying to learn with this kind of bullshit? Get the fuck outta here.

the what

Jaysus. Students should sue the university for perpetrating fraud. They have the right to not have simulations in their classes messing with the learning environment.
