Agreed with all of this. The one note I will add is that this wasn't limited to students from what I saw at APS. All levels were using obviously AI-generated slides. I'm not entirely against using AI for assistance, but to copy-paste the "slides" directly without modification is pretty bad...
@drandreahoward.bsky.socialI just returned from two back-to-back conferences. Students, I noticed that a lot of your slide decks had an oddly similar layout structure and I was able to confirm in conversations that these were AI-generated/assisted.
Some thought about this for your own professional development: 🧵
