My Sims are... smarter (?) after patch

Not in the game I'm playing. Sims have always done homework autonomously and teachers will grade homework especially if they have a focused moodlet. There's a couple of others that will do work tasks because it's something they'll do anyway like read a book for writers or play a game for Tech Guru.

The cooking issue needs to be patched like asap. I can't believe it's taking them so long to fix this bug. If you play autonomously all the time and have a big house hold it's pretty much a game breaker. And pranking your own toilet? Well, that's pretty much the opposite of smart. So, no it honestly seems to be getting worse with each game addition.
