The current crop of technofascists want to destroy higher education and shunt everyone into "AI" use because effective pedagogy creates independent thinkers, whereas reliance on "AI" creates a class dependent on informational outputs controlled by an oligarchical few, who can control the design of the "AI," what it valorizes and what it discounts.

Shorter version: They want you stupid and compliant enough to not even notice how you've become compliant and stupid.
