Why are you charging people thousands of dollars to train them do things a computer can do for free. Every time an AI paper gets an A, the class should be permanently cancelled.
So many colleges aren't teaching anything useful, just taking money in exchange for a "I'm not from a poor family" certification for employers. And with the loan crisis, even that certification is fake.
- harimau777 3y agoIt's possible that the goal of the course is not to be able to produce an A paper but to gain the knowledge that would allow one to produce an A paper. That is to say, the paper may be a measurement not the goal.

- lupire 3y agoIf the AI provides the knowledge, and you have the AI, you have the knowledge. And as Goodhart explains, that makes it a bad measurement. Invent better measurements that measure the actual goal.
