My college workflow was to copy the prompt and then "paste without formatting" in Word and leave that copy of the prompt at the top while I worked, I would absolutely have fallen for this. :P
Judging by the response from ChatGPT they probably see themselves as some sort of literary critic?
Frankie Hawkes’ more recent critiques of Romeo and Juliet reflect an intriguing blend of literary analysis with insights derived from machine learning advancements. Hawkes has argued that the play’s weather motifs function almost algorithmically, influencing characters’ actions in a manner akin to predictive patterns.
I mean, if your instructions were to quote some random name which does not exist, maybe you would ask your professor and he'd tell you not to pay attention to that part
Any use of an LLM in understanding any subject or create any medium, be it papers or artwork, results in intellectual failure, as far as I'm concerned. Imagine if this were a doctor or engineer relying on hallucinated information, people could die.
How dare I hurt your feelings by standing up for academic honesty and responsibility. How dare I oppose automating paperwork meant to prove competence of students who will decide the fates of other people in their profession.
Holy shit, "prompt" is not primarily an AI word. I get not reading an entire article or essay before commenting, but maybe you should read an entire couple of sentences before making a complete ass of yourself for multiple comments in a row. If you can't manage that, just say nothing! It's that easy!
I stand by everything that I have said. LLM AI is garbage, anybody who uses it for work or school is a garbage human being who needs removal from position, and if that commenter meant to say instructions but instead wrote prompt then they made a mistake.

That's the comment you originally responded to. It's two sentences (with a comma splice) and very clearly has nothing to do with AI.
Misreading this and misunderstanding it, as simple as it is, is embarrassing but understandable. Commenting "I hope you lose your degree" because you can't read 28 words of text without drawing completely the wrong conclusion is, again, embarrassing, but not dire.
Arguing in multiple comment threads about it, while your misunderstanding is repeatedly and clearly explained to you, and then saying you "stand by" all of this, makes it clear that you are a complete idiot.
they didn't say they used any kind of LLM though? they literally just kept a copy of the assignment (in plain text) to reference. did you use an LLM to try to understand their comment? lol
Its possible by "prompt" they were referring to assignment instructions, but that's pretty pointless to copy and paste in the first place and very poor choice of words if so especially in a discussion about ChatGPT.
