Why have school at all? Teach kids to read and how to use the internet. Give them a coach that trains them on how to achieve what they want using AI. And, when it's necessary, interview them for competency. I can't see how this isn't the future.
- visarga 3y agoPeople (especially kids) usually lack the personal will power to plough through a subject matter on their own. Having a real human placing demands and expecting results does wonders. Being part of a class taking the same subject also helps with motivation. Professors and other kids don't need to be prompted to talk to you, so they are not so easy to avoid as a chat bot.

You got to know how to demand and what to reject, or else, if you try to automate or outsource that, the other people and AIs won't necessarily work in your best interest. They follow their own interests, you got to do it yourself. Not knowing that something exists is a sure way of never demanding it. Having an education is even more useful today when all you need to do is knowing how to ask.
