This is really interesting. We're talking about relenquish critical thinking, pursue of knowledge, etc... to LLMs.
We know that students look for easiest way to do homework, etc...
This won't accelerate learning, this will hinder it.
Why spend 15 years studying medicine, law, becoming a PhD, if "AI" is going to replace me?
This is a dangerous slope and the issue here is we can't just "hope for the best" and let innovation run amok. We could destroy a whole generation if we don't think this through.
- dorchadas 4y agoWe will destroy a whole generation, in more ways than one. Chatbots will replace what vestiges are left of real in-person socialisation, and then all human connection will be gone. All while a certain few make amazing profits off of it, which they'll then use to insulate themselves from the negative societal repercussions of what they've created.
- corbulo 4y agoThe challenge isn't laziness. It's creating better designed assignments with the time you have with students in person. Grade school students are already in school for 8 whole hours (or close to). You're not igniting the wandering philosopher in them (if it is to be ignited) that ponders about academic subjects after school until college or late high school. Setting up the internet as an adversary will always be a losing battle. It's crazy to me...you already have 8 hours of what is essentially full control! Use that effectively instead of complaining students aren't doing what you want with the other 16 hours of their life. We're finally at a point where we can abandon the systems of old approach to learning. Maximize that, don't cling to the past.
