Now that I think about it I think I just threw the term “plastic” in because I thought it would give a rough area of inquiry because I read that “plastics” were base resistant.

Actually scratch that; what I was ultimately trying to find out was some examples of base resistant biological building materials, not necessarily plastics.

Apologies for being confused about terminology; I just finished my first year of chemistry

I think my classmates think it’s efficient partly because many of them ask it about stuff they didn’t pay attention to because they were yapping amongst themselves during class so they can’t even tell when the AI is pulling a fast one, they just get a nebulous and possibly correct understanding of the material which is better than nothing

I suppose a better question is how to remove AI as a lifeline for lazyboneses or take away its appeal but the former would involve dealing with authorities and I have little support on this in my school 😭
