Mini meltdowns day

I hope that no one experiences the day I had today, ever.

I was going to be defending my dissertation tomorrow at 4pm, until things went sideways. Evidently my chair is the only person who felt I and my work was ready for that.

So I talked with my chair, who is in communication with another committee member–they are friends in addition to colleagues, and the graduate coordinator for my school and they felt I could still get things done in time to graduate in the summer without any extra paperwork.

This morning I got an e-mail from said coordinator who said he got another e-mail from the graduate college with concerns about my ability to get it done by then. I’d really love to know why the graduate college is getting involved, as well as who keeps talking about this with the graduate college instead of at least my chair if not me as well.

I have feedback from the one committee member. I’ve addressed 2/3 of it, with the last 1/3 needing more time and attention. Something I’d rather do after getting feedback from my other committee member. But I’ve heard nothing from him since we agreed on tomorrow for dissertation defense. He’s had my work for around 3 weeks now. I just need his feedback at this point. I e-mailed him asking about it earlier, so hopefully he’ll get back to me tomorrow. If not, I may have to see what steps I need to take since he’s not responding. It’s holding things up at this point.

It is so frustrating to be at this point and have so much out of my control. It’s also frustrating to have so many people outside of my committee involved in this. This is not typical. And it’s very frustrating.

Now I’m going to go back to editing the last three lecture videos I need to have done for the online course I’m teaching starting Monday. Once they’re added to the course, I only have to grade their work. I’m trying to focus on the things I can control so I can make more space to work on the dissertation once I have everything I need.

God this is frustrating!

Just ran my 50 minute defense talk for my advisor 90% off the dome because my script isn’t finished and I think it was more stressful than the actual defense will be

My dissertation has started infecting my dreams, but in really weird ways…

Signal boosting a research survey on how childhood experiences impact military based PTSD. Anonymous survey. Results talking about group statistics not specific people. PTSD can be officially diagnosed, suspected, or self-diagnosed. Please share the link around.

Why is it so much easier to write a story or a fanfic or something like that than the MSc Thesis?

I need some advice (please, I need to submit this in a few months and I don’t know how I’m supposed to write this). If you have any tips, please share for anyone who needs.

Thank you

All the advice about tendonitis says to rest it and stop doing whatever repetitive movement for 2-3 days. Well my dissertation is due on Friday so…… I cannot take a break for 2-3 days. Best I can do is 8 hours

Feedback on survey questions

• Narrow it down to a more narrow area in AI
• Analyze and compare peoples’ opinions
• Does difference in age range play a part in people being more inclined to use AI or not?
• Chris Dixon -> Read Write Own: Building the Next Era of the Internet
• Research people like Sam Altman (founder of ChatGPT)
• Sam Altman -> Tries to justify environmental impact, comparing having to train AI with having to train a human to do the same task and both takes up resources, difference being AI can do it faster, no empathy for anything else, prioritizing productivity and efficiency but is that all we need?
• Artists see the beauty in the world and embrace it and as creatives, isn’t that what should be important to us?
• How AI tools are being integrated into every software/app, eg: AI chatbot, AI search, AI summary
• In the conclusion I can add the ethical side of using AI according to what the people have said -> Compare and analyze everyone’s opinions
• There has always been a fear that human are going to be replaced during each major technological breakthrough
• There is a fear cycle repeating with each advancement
• John Maynard Keynes quotes from the 1930s -> He calls it “Technological unemployment”, Future of Leisure
• For the introduction -> This is how AI is currently being used in the industry
• Methodology -> Surveys and interviews (people’s fears and likes)
• Body -> Deep dive
• Conclusion -> Based on the literature and survey results, these are the predictions for the future, scope for the future
• Main problem is lack of control over the use of AI -> Same as in the novel Jurassic Park. Lack of control and regulations, people can do anything they want with that power
