This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
This has always seemed overblown to me. If students want to cheat on their coursework, who cares? As long as exams are given in a controlled environment, it's going to be painfully obvious who actually studied the material and who had ChatGPT do it for them. Re-taking a course is not going to be fun or cheap.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying this, but it feels like proctored testing solves the entire problem.
Oh no, maybe teachers will have to put effort into their students beyond assigning homework that an AI can do.
Oh, do your regional school districts let teachers design their own curriculum?
Ah yes. The education system. Yeah. That one. where the kids gets slain periodically and systematically. That education system. Where they don't get food. The one where they are killed in systematically over and over without reaction. It's being destroyed by ai? OK.
AI is not your enemy. It IS the future whether you like it or not. Your kids will benefit from AI in ways you cannot even imagine.
Of course AI isn’t the enemy. The enemy is their corporate ownership.
But no doubt AI will be huge in the future, in the sense that “AI” basically means “much better computing capabilities than we have now.”
Yes, but like mental math, it didn't go away when we introduced calculators, and there's a correlation between people who have those skills and income levels (which I'm using as a proxy for "usefulness"). The education system needs to adapt to assignments that students can't just paste into ChatGPT and call it a day- students need to keep spending effort learning.
AI is probably the worst invention sense the atom bomb.
