I prefer Zizek's take on it: " that AI will be the death of learning & so on; to this, I say NO! My student brings me their essay, which has been written by AI, & I plug it into my grading AI, & we are free! While the 'learning' happens, our superego satisfied, we are free now to learn whatever we want"
- thundergolfer 4y agoChomsky kind of hints at this in the interview. He says he doesn't have a problem at MIT with not having engaged students, and though he doesn't say it I think it's obvious that his MIT students are not subjected to typical economics-driven educational pressures. While other students are treating school as a means to a good salary and just want the highest marks for the least effort, Chomsky's graduate MIT students will be ignoring all that stuff and just having classic educational debate in essays and in conversation. With Zizek it's the same. He doesn't have to bother with disengaged students, students who are desperate for college attendance to grant them a ticket into the comfortable upper middle classes and care not for the substance of learning. You take Zizek classes because you actually like philosophy and want to engage with it.
