But if teachers could use AI to grade exams and automate the boring work, then they could take a second job and be able to afford housing. Sounds like an easy win for AI.
- nozonozon 2y agoI love the idea that no one is 'only' a teacher. Teachers that live in the real world make much more sense to me. My ideal work week: 10h administrative work (figuring out what and how for the rest of the week) 10h technical job 10h teaching in a classroom 10h 1:1 mentoring
- stavros 2y agoI read this comment and it struck me as excellent parody, but now I'm worried it's in earnest.
- labster 2y agoThis was my club in university: https://daviswiki.org/Students_for_an_Orwellian_Society https://daviswiki.org/Students_for_an_Orwellian_Society I think that 20 years later it is much harder make effective satire, so I rarely do it now. More extreme positions are taken pretty regularly by folks online, so even people like you in my target audience are never sure if something is satirical or just extreme.
- shermantanktop 2y agoThat’s why most satire is pretty lame. The more obvious it is, the less funny; the less obvious it is, the less interesting. And the whole thing is built on an inside/outside dynamic that is pretty basic.
- phs318u 2y agoRealising the promise of AI, freeing teachers from the drudgery of 'boring work' so they can take on a second job as a food-server, burger-flipper, shelf-stacker or Uber driver (at least until robotics and self-driving tech eliminate those jobs too).
