Computer science student criticizes muddled university AI rules and teaching
What happened
A computer science student's account appeared on the Hacker News front page on November 3, criticizing a university that keeps changing its AI rules and uses AI to generate assignment briefs, worsening the learning experience. She says different modules set conflicting AI requirements, Claude-generated briefs are full of errors, and fixes often land one or two weeks before the deadline, tripling the workload. She also describes heavier tutor workloads and says pessimistic talk about software engineering careers saps her motivation. The post is her criticism of course arrangements and her study situation; no school response or follow-up is mentioned.
