- This might indeed be happening, but we should also keep in mind that “technology is ruining the children!” is a perpetual moral panic. The effect of AI on kids is way too early and amorphous to say anything definitive yet.
“Massive #s of students are going to emerge... who are essentially illiterate. Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate + having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.” This isn't the only reason AI is bad, but it's why it is bad for students.
- I 100% would have used ChatGPT for homework when I was in school, because homework sucked ass. However, if I hadn't been forced to bullshit a lot of essays 15 minutes before class I wouldn't have learned that I enjoy writing. The moral is to destroy both ChatGPT and homework.
