Egh Moody adults are ignorant to how it works, how to prompt well, and are scared of using it at work.
Kids are going to gobble that shit up. It's being used for cheating until the kids get into the workforce.
If anything, people who like chatGPT are the ones ignorant of how it works (spoiler: it doesn't).
And kids with their understanding of technology being limited to youtube and tiktok have no clue about what an AI is. They see it, like most people, as a magic black box that is incredibly smart. Apart from being a black box, none of that is true.

Yeah, shitty article. AI is the same as calculators. So what! Kids don't have to waste mental cycles with your tedious and borderline sadistic amounts of homework. Go fly a kite.
edit: clarification
I never said anything to the contrary. Using ti86 was cheating when I was in school, now it's taught in 6th grade.
I was agreeing and speaking more at the article. Sorry for the confusion :)
Yes it's a better search engine... Google and the like are shitting their pants that ClosedAI are keeping the users for themselves
I feel this is a political issue on the understanding of ai. It is a powerful tool and all powerful tools garner a certain amount of fear. Ultimately the protests against ai will fail and if history has taught us anything that protesting efficiency will be futile.
I'm not sure whether or not to call my daughter lucky that she couldn't get away with this on her school-issued Chromebook, but it's probably for the best.
If anything, services like that can be better than mindless scribbling off of someone else's paper as you can ask clarifying questions and have it explain concepts to you with some accuracy.
