@Patrickoldhiker @drikanis @ludicity It remains a great fear of mine that those of us who went through education before LLMs, do not understand just how badly LLMs will affect education of young people.
I worry we will get an entire lost generation of people who will lack even the most fundamental skills in reading, writing and math. And no, sending and receiving a thousand SMS and WhatsApp messages a day, will not compensate.

@mapcar @drikanis @ludicity Also affecting this situation is that this generation of young people lost a year or two of schooling to the #pandemic causing weaknesses in both knowledge and socialization. I've heard a number of comments on this from a friend and a niece who are teachers.
