This, in my opinion, is a very good thing. Learning _should_ be more about synthesis than about fact memorization anyways, it's recognized as one of the highest forms of learning under Bloom's Taxonomy. While yes, it means that our education system will need to adapt, I hope it also means we'll be teaching our students better because they'll be encouraged to learn at a deeper level.
