    They’re about to turn AI into a scapegoat for why kids are stupid and blame everything on it, as if before AI our education system was perfect.

      You don’t need to pretend education was perfect before in order to realise that it’s getting worse and try to reverse the trend.

      You also don’t need to pretend it was perfect before in order to see that the proliferation of LLM’s is harming education.

      “Kids are dumb cuz AI” is literally the new “kids are dumb cuz phones”

      It’s generational propaganda meant to divide us.

        Well…AI pushes from management are absolutely not just a boomer phenomena. The whole premise of AI buzz in management is “let’s hire less workers”.

        I’d say it’s more of the offshoring to “cheaper” labor markets but except only the AI giants writing agents get paid, not actual people.

        Instead of lifting people out of poverty or providing humane assistive technology, every AI ceo out there has their eyes on selling their products so their clients can lay off people.
