heyWhatsayProfessors Say AI Is Destroying Their Students' Ability to Think
theBATCLAMIt’s absolutely terrifying. I am a returning student to uni in my thirties and the only person not using any AI. They literally depend on it.
I just had a classmate the other day turn to me, frustrated, saying “You ever ask chat(gpt) a question and it gives you a whole, like, paragraph you then have to read? like, why can’t it simplify it?”
So yeah, even reading paragraphs is too much for these people. Future workforce is fucking cooked.
I’m almost 50 doing a doctorate in engineering. ChatGPT is very helpful to do homework but won’t really teach you to do things. That said, I’m very glad to have it because this program would be so much harder without something to check my answers and understanding.

Yeah dude that’s how norms work.
If you’re staring off into space and can’t talk directly to someone, you need to learn that skill.
Like, this is common sense.
Bold of you to assume “looking someone in the eye” and “talking directly” are the same thing!
Have you MET autistic people?
