That may apply to machine learning, but not to anything you'd get in a grade school math education. Or a graduate one for that matter. Moving from rote implementation of something else came up with to figuring out how to approach problems where the steps aren't already laid out for you is a big speed bump in university education for mathematics majors. Also, unless our current machine learning algorithms just need bigger computers to take over the world, somebody is going to have to develop more. If some kind of guiding intuition isn't a part of that process, the universe will hit heat death before we build an AGI.
