Relentless advancement to produce new gen of blob-no-thoughts seppos

I asked Wendy if I could read the paper she turned in, and when I opened the document, I was surprised to see the topic: critical pedagogy, the philosophy of education pioneered by Paulo Freire. The philosophy examines the influence of social and political forces on learning and classroom dynamics. Her opening line: “To what extent is schooling hindering students’ cognitive ability to think critically?” Later, I asked Wendy if she recognized the irony in using AI to write not just a paper on critical pedagogy but one that argues learning is what “makes us truly human.” She wasn’t sure what to make of the question. “I use AI a lot. Like, every day,” she said. “And I do believe it could take away that critical-thinking part. But it’s just — now that we rely on it, we can’t really imagine living without it.”

My son is in 6th grade. He reads a lot and have kept him from device over use. He's no unsupervised time on the Internet, appropriate for a not yet 12 year old. His teachers love me. I love them.

Doesnt mean shit though, when some other boy sneaks in a burner phone to look up porn in the bathroom and show his peers. Any kid who has unrestricted access to the internet is going to be exposed to degeneracy, and I don't just mean the porn. My son understands screen addiction. Something I'm really proud of, but also sad about because he sees it in his peers.
