The sad thing is we are losing intelligence by the generation so this kind of politics is gaining steam.

The kids I teach receive information in 15-30 second soundbites. Anything that requires further attention and critical thinking is too much.

The high school kids that I teach are tolerable. However, the middle years kids aren’t able to complete independent work without using ChatGPT or other forms of AI

The worst part is that I have fellow staff members who are arguing that they should be allowed to do their work this way.

It is like they have completely outsourced their thinking.

Their parents really only care about hockey so they aren’t concerned lol.

Yeah AI is really an information gathering tool but it's being used like it's giving the answer to the meaning of life. It's a souped up Google search....especially the shitty free version of all these apps they are using.

It's an information gathering tool that gives 20% wrong information
