You’ll never guess who Andrew Petter is!

  He was born in New Westminster, but raised in SFU Woodward’s.

  He often plays electric guitar around the Surrey campus.

  He’s read his convocation ceremony speech progressively faster at every convocation ceremony since 2014.

  He claps three times in front of his nose in response to clever anecdotes.

  He rides his motorcycle into every SFU class in the first week of each semester.

  He just dropped a rap single about tape players with Macklemore.

  He singlehandedly cleans the Mackenzie Cafe every weekday evening after closing.

  His office doesn’t have lights.

  His office has been playing Kanye West’s “All Day” on repeat since the start of the summer semester.

  He hasn’t slept in days.

  He swipes at your legs if you catch him on a bad day.

  He’s currently enrolled in 28 undergrad credits.

  He’ll only open his office door if you knock twice and say “welcome to the good life.”

If you see him, call BC SPCA at 604 291-7201.

We’re still not sure who Andrew Petter is.

Thankfully, the impromptu questionnaire did not lead to a bunch of failing grades and the lecture went forward as usual.  However, it underscored a more pressing issue with artificial intelligence (AI) use: research shows that men are more likely to adopt generative AI tools such as ChatGPT in professional settings than women. This staggering imbalance contributes to the pre-existent workplace gender...
