I refuse to believe that AI will cheaper than five grad students.

A Bluesky comment

Sal Khan came to my college campus a few months ago to give a talk. Everybody was very excited. Many of us had fond memories of learning chemistry or calculus from his videos… then he gave a “talk” (read: “ad”) on this crap... very disheartening

Lol sure man. Like having 5 grad students who are sleep deprived and hungover maybe, hallucinating bullshit confidently

What these ghouls fail to realize/intentionally ignore is the fact that socialization is vital to human growth and development and that is a significant part of the value of schooling. Teachers aren't just fact dispensers or paper graders or presentation-givers, theyre (ideally, lets be real here) mentors and mandatory reporters and role models but most importantly they're people.

These pricks want to alienate and isolate some of the most vulnerable people in the world because they could make a buck off of it. Assholes.

I'm surprised that someone who was pretty good at helping people through complex topics is such a dumbass, but I guess that's tech bro brain for you

Without his lessons I probably wouldn't have a degree lol

Children will make any LLMs their bitch. They are creative, ruthless and not cooperative learners. Within 5 minutes your chatbot won't be able to say anything but peepeepoopoo.

Graduate students could assist teachers if they were paid fairly for their work.

Nah, let's just pay the owner of an AI to misinform students.

that's actually kinda cute, it's such a quaint prediction, coming straight from early 2023, when lots of people were impressed and had some degree of hope that AI would be a transformative, positive tool, rather than the nightmare factory churning out piss-colored garbage that it currently is

well, i guess they did in fact figure out a way to ruin public education so much that i wouldn't send my kids there.
