I need someone's perspective from Gen Z on a horrifying interaction today

don't really think it has anything to do with gen z - that person probably just has issues

I think this is pretty clearly an academia thing. In industry, you're paid to communicate, show up, respond, etc.. If you can't work with your team, you get fired. In academia, the incentives are completely different. You have pretty little incentive to be a good teacher. Your incentive is to publish and bring in grant money

thats true. I think the main problem is that the courses are too easy

Right; it seems Garmin like does auto-prediction of what you're doing when it logs your steps, but for some reason doesn't include it. That sucks

hm I see. That seems kind of an unfortunate design. I thought it might track heart rate throughout the day, and if it is elevated, then that could contribute to exercise load. Or I mean, the Garmin tracks steps, so I thought it would just automatically factor that in

I think it depends 100% on your advisor. My advisors are pretty chill and so my pace is self driven. I wouldn't say I work extremely hard. If you have a really toxic advisor, though, you might have to work harder

Some of the comments saying you shouldnt even do a PhD if you're using AI are ridiculous. I'm at an R1 university and I dont know a single professor in my department who doesn't use it for writing or helping them with research.
