I'm pretty sceptical about the entire use of computers in education. For myself, I seem to be incapable of learning anything unless I read it from paper and write down notes in the margin or in my (paper) notebook. Obviously I use screens every day (being a programmer ...) but for actual recall of new material, I need to use paper. Also if I'm in a physical meeting or conference, I never have a laptop open, and I take notes on paper. This makes me doubt that you learn anything if laptops or tablets are involved. Nothing specific to AI, just my general observation.

- kraftman 1y agoI think this comes down to how you first learnt to learn. If I write notes in nodepad i dont remember them as well as if i write them by hand, but I think that's just a byproduct of years of school, and other people have learnt their own ways and are just as effective.
