any education that can be ruined by chatgpt is an education that wasn't valuable in the first place. you can't force someone to learn, that's always been true, this just reduces the burden on people who were never going to give it their all anyway. even if you manage to force some information into their brain that they're not interested in, they'll forget it as soon as they're allowed. i think the solution is to structure all school like college and let kids choose which classes they want, ranging from as many as they can fit to zero. why worry about the academic integrity of kids who are literally prisoners having their time and energy stolen from them for things that they don't think are important? everyone has interests they'll pursue, they just need the right to choose how they spend their time and energy, and to be treated like they actually have some sort of control over their own brains. letting kids choose their own classes will not only make them happier and healthier, but more employable and more educated in what they were actually gonna end up being smart about anyway. they'll also see the value in classes they find boring once they actually have something to apply them to. if you gave kids the option to just leave (something everyone should have at any time unless you believe in incarceration), you would see zero phones out in classrooms. also, get rid of grades, they serve absolutely no purpose other than coercion, they're using chatgpt to get a report card that won't make their parents mad.
