I think that they're saying a little bit of playing around with replacing thinking and composing with automated tools is recoverable, but at an industrial or societal scale the damage is significant. Like the difference between shoveling away some sand with your hands to bury the small creatures temporarily and actually destroying their habitat by "lobbying city council members to put in a groin or seawall, and seriously move that beach sand."
- profsummergig 2y agoI skimmed the Anthropic report and didn't catch the negative effects. Did they mention any? Good on them if they did.
- hecanjog 2y agoYes, they mention a few times the concern that students are offloading critical thinking rather than using the tool for learning.
- Cthulhu_ 2y agoI just hope the educational institutions catch on, stick with their principles and don't give them the paperwork. The paper / title should be evidence of students' learning and thinking abilities, not of just their output.
