It was right there with flying cars and domed cities on the moon. That was part of the whole Disneyworld/OMNI Magazine promise about life in the year 2000.

    My kids use chat gpt to learn stuff sometimes, like math. They do extensively check it’s not bullshit though.

    I definitely see a trend where crappy teachers get bested by computers.

      Crappy teachers get bested by computers which turn out to be even crappier because they don’t give a shit about things like how a kid is feeling today psychologically or if they just need some encouragement to try a little harder.

      And then you get into the hallucinations.

      I would rather have a crappy teacher that cares about the kids than an AI who has no capacity to do so.

      That’s why you should have good teachers. Replacing them with machines isn’t a solution, because kids have to learn from other humans. That’s kinda how our species works. Learning isn’t just based on strings of words, but also human interaction.

        In the best of worlds of course, but for now it’s better than nothing.

        The very best is a personal teacher but that seems unlikely for most kids…
