If I wanted to know what an atom is I wouldn't sign up for a college course.
But if I did sign up for a college course i would expect a more systematic presentation of the material than "whatever random thing I thought to ask an AI."
Not to mention just the other day I asked Chatgpt 4 accounting questions and it gave the wrong answer, and only interrogating it prompted it to correct itself.
- stinkbutt 3y agoyou seem to think "gpt4 is the best learning tool" means "gpt4 is the only tool that should be used in education". i literally said in my original reply that it should be used with other learning tools. your example is the perfect use case. the course is a great tool for providing an outline of what to learn. if i follow that outline with gpt4 im going to learn the concepts much faster than i would with a book, and since i'm learning them faster i will have more time (and motivation) to learn more concepts.
- staticman2 3y agoI'm saying GPT 4 isn't the best learning tool, books are, and GPT 4 can be useful without exaggerating it's usefulness and declaring it "the best tool".
- Shugarl 3y agoThat's debatable. The hardest thing about learning a new concept/idea is to get started. GPT lowers the barrier of entry, and you can use the knowledge you got to tackle other learning tools and fix the parts GPT got wrong.
