Shadowing Practice: We Need To Stay Human - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
we need to stay human hello fellow humans
2
if you even really are human i truly have no way
3
of knowing i just want to talk about the a .i artificial intelligence
4
if you will i know that
5
when people hear about artificial intelligence it comes with a lot of eye rolls
6
and size and i don't think i can blame anybody for having
7
that reaction especially with how invasive it has become in a lot of spaces throughout our lives like for example
8
when you use google and just want to search something up
9
and you get a ton of ai overview stuff taking up half the damn screen
10
or the questions they put under i get wanting to make
11
the search for knowledge an easier experience on the eyes
12
but man it gets stuff wrong a lot of the time at least in my experience but yeah
13
ai is everywhere dude i boot up my computer for classes
14
and i instantly see microsoft co -pilot when i open up word
15
which thankfully you can uninstall
16
but it's just another thing you need to uninstall once you
17
get a new computer i just also wish you could uninstall the edge browser
18
which is kind of off topic but please let me uninstall edge browser thank you
19
and then it's kind of crazy they killed cortana a second
20
time for this you know poor master chief man poor John has to see her die again and again
21
and that's just one thing it's on your phone your TV
22
social media your Samsung fridge maybe who knows I'm not even
23
just talking about using AI I'm also talking about coming across it on your feed maybe
24
when you're scrolling on your phone
25
or planning to watch a new show you'll see artwork
26
that isn't really quite right people in the comments repeating one thing after another
27
that is vaguely connected to the post but doesn't even really make sense?
28
I mean, it's kind of weird to go online and not even know if other users are real people.
29
Speaking of not knowing if someone is a real person, we have companies being too lazy and cheap to hire real models
30
so they use ai generated faces in their advertisements why there's
31
also like these fake ai generated videos with fake backstories
32
that try to trick people end up
33
buying their crap i don't
34
even know what to say to somebody not paying attention it's hard to notice at first with the generated images
35
and so you'd maybe scroll past and not think too much of it, but what it implies for the future is kind of scary, at least to me.
36
It's also sad, because the way that AI feeds on and uses the artwork of real artists,
37
a lot of people get falsely accused of using AI in their drawings or creations.
38
Meanwhile, the people who are using AI are making up crazy
39
ways to try to trick people into thinking their art is real.
40
Which, I mean, if you're putting in that much work to make fake sketches, then wouldn't you rather just put in the time to learn how to draw?
41
I don't know.
42
That's just how I look at it.
43
There are also people who have full -on conversations with these AI chatbots and then have an over -reliance on AI.
44
You know it's bad when they share screenshots
45
and then you just see chat GPT talking in ways that just should not be allowed, man.
46
Why do you have your chatbot talking to you like this?
47
This is not healthy.
48
Why didn't you give it a personality?
49
That's insane.
50
It's also sad because some people think they've developed an actual connection with their chat GPT agent
51
and then some people are believing they're in a real relationship with it
52
there's like a whole subreddit which I still don't know
53
if it's satire but one can hope I might just be
54
that dumb but it's a whole group of people claiming
55
that the ai agent is their boyfriend or girlfriend like even
56
if the subreddit is not real there are people who actually
57
treat chat gpt like they're in a relationship with it i think
58
that also ties into ai just being everywhere
59
and easily accessible too a lot of vulnerable people who may
60
have difficulty socializing can just open up this app on their phone
61
and talk to a chat bot instead of trying to go out
62
or have a conversation in the real world with a real
63
person at the end of the day this chat bot has to give a reply
64
so none of it is as real as you think it's
65
just doing what it was programmed to do people also love using it as a search engine
66
which i mean it can be used in that way
67
but like why is your question that important or complicated
68
that you couldn't just use a different search engine
69
and actually just go do the research or find your answer there
70
and i know earlier i did mention google has implemented an ai overview
71
but you can disable those things and still find what you're looking for believe it
72
or not there was a time where you searched something
73
and then found what you were looking for in the next
74
two seconds people will also ask ai the dumbest questions imaginable like i guess bro other than it being everywhere
75
and accessible i just truly think it's making a lot of people dumber image
76
and video generation aside we already know people are too lazy to learn how to create their own art
77
or videos people are just not wanting to learn they would
78
rather put their whole assignment onto the ai instead of doing
79
it themselves i get not wanting to do the schoolwork
80
but back then there really wasn't a way to generate an entire essay believe me younger me tried
81
and failed i think i was in like sixth grade
82
and just didn't want to do my work
83
so i searched up essay generator free online and then just put in the subject I was writing about,
84
pasted it in, didn't read what it put out like the idiot I was, and then got caught because of how bad a job the essay generator did.
85
I mean, it was good I got caught because that was actually a stupid thing I did, but it taught me to actually put in the work and not try to find shortcuts in my education.
86
Nowadays, it's even harder for the teachers
87
or professors to catch on to the fact
88
that what they're reading may not be an original work by their student
89
but something generated by ai i shared my ai disaster story
90
because believe me i was also a student wanting to get
91
out of work like i did not want to do my work at all
92
and i just wanted the easiest thing to get an a
93
and not learn but like i still remember the essay i wrote after getting caught
94
and i can't imagine just generating an essay reading it over
95
and then submitting it as an assignment is enough to retain the knowledge
96
that you're supposed to be getting from actually doing the research and doing the work
97
to be honest i don't really know what i want to
98
get out of this video this is mostly just me ranting
99
about my feelings of it all from what i've personally seen
100
and experienced as well i don't really think i'm anti -ai as a whole
101
because it can be used as a tool for good
102
and it is being used that way it's just the fact
103
that it's everywhere which makes it that much more annoying to people
104
What's a human being gotta be like What's a way to just be competent Your sweet instincts ruin my life

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
