>Kristen DiCerbo, the organization’s chief learning officer, said AI can only respond to students based on what they ask. And it turns out, she said, “Students aren’t great at asking questions well.” Ignoring whether or not this is a good idea in the first place, what about inverting the loop?

On one hand I will grow old knowing I'll always have a job because a lot of kids never will have researched anything in their lives and won't know how to deal with anything an LLM can't solve. On the other hand between this and most kids having had a 2 year covid gap in their learning, who the heck is going to pay my retirement and be my doctor when I'm old?
