i personally disagree, but only time can tell
we don't know what AI is going to look like (we can't predict what sort of course technology is going to take), but LLMs specifically do seem to be hitting diminishing returns--at their core they're statistical models that predict text, they don't reason about things.

GPT-5 itself seemed to have gotten a less than great reception
im so upset at how everyone is botching their launches for no reason at all 🙄
meta, openai, google
like bro....
trail escarp
no like meta was just shitty in their launch, google had a horrible start, openai overhyped it even though they knew it wasnt that good yet
ive heard that their internal models are mind blowingly good, but no way they can release them without hitting an initial google style outrage
wispy plover
im genuinely not sure how openai still exists either
they're just spawning in billions of dollars and burning it
trail escarp
im genuinely not sure how openai still exists either
yeah openai confuses me bro
like logically it should just be google since they have the money to burn, they own their infra end to end, and genuinely have the best models
wispy plover
they haven't been profitable for a while, and I don't believe they're projected to be profitable anytime soon either.

what jobs can a purdue ds degree get that a purdue cs degree cant?
hoary quartz
a job
wispy plover
a job
what types of jobs would a DS apply for that a CS couldn't? i highly doubt companies care what the degree specially is, as long as it's somewhat computing adjacent
you've got CS, CE, and hell, even physics majors applying for swe work
there's no reason a cs degree can't get a job that's suppose to be "for" data science
if data science jobs more stable than swe jobs with now, people with swe degrees can still apply for those

guys what do i put for reasons wanting to go to west lafayette instead of indy bc ive been looking over their website and i cant find much info on indianapolis and their differences besides ppls opinions 🙁
hoary quartz
It's not opinions
So purdue is trying to present indianapolis as if it's like west lafayette
But it's not
Indie campus only has three buildings
It doesn't have all the resources that the main campus has
Everything's under development and you won't see it until ten years after you graduate college
All the clubs and academics and general amenities are subpar
Compared to the main campus
PurdueIndianapolis exist for people who like the small campus vibe and also are perfectly fine with the fact that purdue kind of lies about indy
West lafayette has a hundred and fifty years of buildup and resources and support, because it's the main campus
Purdue indy could totally be something awesome and cool in ten years.But at the moment, it's pretty lackluster, and more likely acts like a commuter school less than the big brand new campus of the main campus
In this promotional marketing, it keeps on leeching off of already existing networks.At the main campus, which kind of deludes people into thinking that that's also available at the campus an hours drive away from hours
If you're from indianapolis, purdue indy is like a reasonable option.But if you're from out of state, just go to the main campus

Are you trying to apply EA?
if you're applying Purdue you really need to apply EA
or your chances of getting in go down exponentially

i know applying to purdue EA is much better than regular but exactly how much better is it? should i have gone for EA?
By not going for RA i'll finish calculus II from dual enrollment, get a CSWA from solidworks, increase my SAT to around 1500 (it wouldve been 1360 before) and also finish 2 Crest Gold projects (you might not know this, its just gold awards for an engineering project, one with a small team and one personal project)
im applying for AAE
fallen ibex
tineo says strengthening ur app > submitting early
fallen ibex
1500 seems much better than 1360
karmic phoenix
yeah my gpa is also pretty low but im international so idk if they would really care about my school gpa when i have calc I and calc II dual enrollment credits
if i had applied EA i would've only been able to show the 3.8 gpa i got the first like 5-6 weeks of school but now i can actually send the proper midterm report
my cumulative gpa is gonna be like 3.2 bruh i really didnt care about school the last 3 years lmao

yeah

i see
so uh
could i actually declare i want to change major
right at freshman year
so they can take me into the codo courses needed to change major
i dont really understand what they mean when they put minimum semester
junior relic
i dont really understand what they mean when they put minimum semester
I don’t know too but I know people that changed major after 1 semester
Think you have to wait to change
But that’s ok
You can still take some classes iirc
What credits you got?
eternal token
stat class
and idk im taking cal bc this year hopefully i get a 5 for the credit
a 4 would be fantastic tho

oh btw
the business analytic and information management course is only pre
when i register
that mean i gotta complete credits for first year to study that by 2nd year

Interesting
eternal token
so does that could possibly help
junior relic
What do you mean I’m confused
eternal token
with my major switching
since im not technicaly pursuing right in first tear
year
eternal token
What do you mean I’m confused
the BAIM program is only listed as “pre” when i get in
so i technically not studying that major yet at first year till i complete the courses
so does that make my major switching somewhat more flexible

so does that make my major switching somewhat more flexible

I’d email some academic advisors in the Baim department

Depends on major and depends on what you start with
It depends on semester.It's a lot of nuanced things
There is a whole system for it, though

i know quite alot
there were alot of potential people on this server who did not get in
the acceptance rate is not how it was before

Huh

i mean look at the exceptance rates
its not 100 percent
so clearly people are getting rejected

would 1570 be enough cuz my grades are ahh
A 1570 will definitely help, but we can't really tell you what's going to be "enough".
that's a great score though, I'm sure it'll increase your chances quite a bit
I got in with a 1490 and good (but not overly amazing) grades
wispy plover
I was initially waitlisted, though
scarlet geode
I was initially waitlisted, though
