Wow. That is all you got from the article? Students will find ways to make their lives "easier" by sabotaging their own education with assistants like AI, regardless of the quality of professors teaching them. Tools like ChatGPT can only regurgitate what was already written, often with confident but wrong takes. They can't offer new perspectives, or inspire students with a different way of thinking about the world. These are not teacher, let alone college professor, replacements.

It its capable of offering new perspectives. Just ask it.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted- most of my professors were lazy, ignorant, and had a strong left political bias that clouded their thinking. Sounds exactly like chatgpt - replace lazy with low uptime, ignorant with fake facts, and the left political bias is well documented.
