the entire point of the tech is to /sound like/ it's giving authoritative answers, though, which surely muddies things a bit
like, the kid's not wrong, it IS functionally a search engine of everything. it just gives highly lossy results
I’m misread your post and snarked about it. I’m sorry.
If you’re referring to AI bullshit I agree. It’s meant to look authoritative. But I do think that means you have to educate kids about it like, say tobacco (if the government won’t step in so something which it won’t).
no worries, i missed your first reply anyway
i don't think our educational system is really designed for something like this, though. are most /teachers/ even skeptical of chatgpt? it's an easy box you can type any question into and get an answer for, hard for non-turbo-nerds to simply dismiss
it's very bad and the simplest way through seems to be for everyone to just gradually discover that it's very bad
and i guess my original thought is that the tech /is/ bad, or at the very least wildly irresponsible. it's a fantasy machine marketed as a super smart scifi computer man
I don’t know where you are but based on America since 2016 I don’t think people can learn themselves. It’s too much for a significant part of the population’s Homo erectus brains.
I get no pleasure from saying that.
If there was demand we could fill it. I don’t expect the 6th grade science teacher to teach English lit. In the same way we need people teaching media literacy and tech literacy.
