I’ve personally witnessed that they’ve replaced staff with ChatGPT, namely this year’s Academic Advisors.
Since nobody is going to believe me anyways, there is no point in risking this discussion being traced back to me somehow, I’m deleting the post and comments. I have still witnessed the replacement of staff with ChatGPT. I was not mistaking the SMS acronym I actually confirmed firsthand that advisors were unavailable for any form of appointment except text format. This is real.
Did you just give us a fucking screenshot of an article headline instead of linking an actual article? (Edit 2: OP has now edited the post and added the link, thanks for that I guess.)
Edit: AND you gave it a misleading title? Jesus Christ, this is the peak of low effort bullshit.
Here’s the article, in case anyone wants to actually learn something instead of just reading a headline and commenting something edgy: https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/18/24043017/openai-arizona-state-university-asu-chatgpt
Here’s what it actually says:
The university will begin taking project submissions from faculty and students on where to use ChatGPT beginning in February. … There may even be room for chatbots to act as personalized tutors for ASU students, said Jones.
Literally doesn’t say a single word about “replacing advisors or educators”.

Found out about what? That they haven’t actually replaced any staff with chat bots? Because that’s what this article says.

So, this article actually disagrees with you, it lends you no credibility at all. You said in another comment that you have evidence, I’d love to see it.
But I’ll go ahead and warn you: if your evidence is just the existence of an SMS “advisor” chat bot, I’m going to be very rude and condescending, and continue to make fun of you, because that isn’t evidence of anybody being “replaced”.
Edit: for those following along, it’s even dumber than I thought. OP saw “SMS” and assumed it meant texting, when it really stands for School of Molecular Science
Thank you for your service. May you have a lot of peach in your life.

I don’t see how it would ever lend credibility to your claims when it doesn’t say the same thing you are saying. The closest thing the article says to what you’ve claimed is that it may be used as a tutor.

No thing is saying the thing that I’m saying except for me
Gee I wonder why. 🙄
the thing I used to add credibility says that OpenAI has partnered with the University I accused of replacing people with Chatbots, which is true.
This is like hearing that there are giant asteroids in space and jumping to the conclusion that one is headed right for earth.

I used to worry that AI would help students cheat, but now it turns out it’s going to be the other way around.

It’s ok. It was a really short rant.
All we need to do is decide to take the money back from the wealthy. I prefer the “tax the shit out of the wealthy and then start offering government jobs starting at $50/hr and yes we will compete with and/or nationalize anything we want until wages relink with or exceed productivity” method.
I am not sure why people are more mad about borders and IVF than they are about stuff like this.
Students are going to help AI cheat?

You see brain drain when educated people leave an area. So does this lead to brain rot?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t university all about the human connection in addition to the knowledge? Why else would we spend our tax dollars as well as tuition. AI seems antithetical to the university/college environment.
Also antithetical to teaching complex subjects.
So now that they are saving soooooo much money on tiny little details like ‘teachers’ they will make it much cheaper to go there, right?

I hate reality.

I’d love more info. I was not able to find reports of this from searching. The Verge article is mostly just a reformatted press release from ASU. :/ https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/18/24043017/openai-arizona-state-university-asu-chatgpt

Oh my God this is hilarious.
SMS stands for SCHOOL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCE.
My dude, stop smoking weed and take some actual classes, maybe a debate class or something.
