Most modern “plotters” are just bigass printers. The word used to only mean pen-based vector-drawing machines, but the overlapping use in architechture and engineering meant that as cheap inkjets supplanted the pen plotters they co-opted the name.
They want you to hand copy what ChatGPT outputs and turn it in? That’s a terrible response to AI. If they want to hold you accountable, they should have you write it right there in front of them.
Ok, so hand copy all your assignments from ChatGPT all semester and I, the instructor, will count them as 50 percent of your final grade. The other 50 percent is based on a hand-written final essay written in class. How do you think you will do?
I am old so all of my formal university education was completed decades ago, but people cheated back then too and in my experience it’s usually way more effort than it’s worth as opposed to just doing the work and coming out with the skills you’ll need to be successful at the next level.
That’s my dreary little bit of moralizing for the day.
Who will explain the concept of a regular printer to him?
Who will explain the concept of a plotter to you?
You?
Plotters are awesome.
Like a printer, but with pens.

Or knives! Or inkjets! There are all kinds of bastards, I used to work with the knife variety (huge Roland thingamabobs) and also sell them.
Wait shit I just use one as a printer for bigass drawings. I didn’t realize it used a pen

Thanks, I’ve never dealt with that before. But from what I’ve read, a regular printer would still make more sense for such a task.
Teachers are starting to enforce hand written assignments to stop the use of chatGPT
Could one not just copy a chat got essay by hand?
Can’t jack off, play league, and write your homework with just two hands
That would actually help to learn the subject

It’s a deterrent, not an end all be all solution to end cheating.

Sure, but you can clearly see from the result that it’s not handwritten. The person could have used a normal printer.
This video says it’s possible to make it look like a human wrote it.
If you’re wondering if this is more work than writing the actual essay, we don’t talk about that here.
That’s really cool
Theoretically it could be 3D printer but used like a plotter here.
