Stanford’s AI Innovation: Now Available in Plagiarized Editions
The controversy surrounding the Stanford University AI model, Llama 3-V, involves allegations of plagiarism from a Chinese AI project, MiniCPM-Llama3-V 2.5, developed by Tsinghua University’s Natural Language Processing Lab and ModelBest. The Stanford team, comprising undergraduates Aksh Garg, Siddharth Sharma, and Mustafa Aljadery, issued a public apology and removed their model after these claims surfaced.
AI and Edu Cheating:
📌Despite the initial panic, AI didn’t turn students into cheating masterminds. Who knew they might actually want to learn?
📌It was initially banned AI, but now business sells courses how to ethically use AI
📌The survey found that the percentage of AI cheating hasn’t increased. Turns out, students were already pretty good at cheating without AI.
Stanford Plagiarism Scandal:
📌Stanford’s Llama 3-V model was accused of being a copy-paste job from Tsinghua University’s MiniCPM-Llama3-V 2.5. Apparently, originality is overrated.
📌The Stanford team apologized and pulled their model. Better late than never, right?
📌Model Best’s CEO called for «openness, cooperation, and trust.» Because nothing says trust like getting your work stolen.
Academic Integrity Under Fire:
📌Harvard’s president, Claudine Gay, resigned over plagiarism allegations. Just another day in the life of academia.
📌Marc Tessier-Lavigne, former Stanford president, also stepped down due to manipulated data in his studies. Seems like a trend.
📌Neri Oxman from MIT was caught plagiarizing from Wikipedia. Because why bother with original research when you have the internet?
📌The public’s trust in academic institutions is at an all-time low. Shocking, isn’t it?
The Broader Implications:
📌The academic world is facing a crisis of integrity. Who could have seen that coming?
📌Advanced technology is making it easier to detect plagiarism. So, maybe it’s time for academics to actually do their own work.
📌The irony is that these high-profile cases are only now coming to light because of the very technology that some of these academics might have helped develop.
