A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I think the bigger problem here isn't the use of LLMs to teach children, but the fact that LLMs are being used as a weapons now in the polarization of American politics. LLMs are helping political extremists push their ideology into the real world, eliminating critical thinking in the process.
The thing about technology in USian politics is, it tends to only be picked up if it can be weaponized. Otherwise it tends to go unnoticed.
How are LLMs helping that happen and eliminating critical thinking?
