The hope I used to have that *surely* the education sector won't embrace these tools designed for plagiarism & cheating.... was sorely naive. #education #parenting #OnPoli #teaching #CdnPoli

@syntaxseed@phpc.social oh no, I'm sorry to hear it has got so deep even in the lower grades. I'm taking a quarter off from teaching 100-level college classes, and possibly won't return, because of a similar reason. It was heartbreaking / infuriating / plain annoying to see students loose their own voice and self, while at the same time having admin sending surveys about how were we implementing AI in the curriculum, and slowly seeing faculty move further and further towards that.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social that's actually disgusting and any teacher telling children their work isn't good enough next to AI should feel eternally ashamed.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social The other 'fun' thing is my older kid (year 7 - first year of secondary school in the UK) is complaining that his teachers are increasingly using AI to both plan lessons, set, and EVALUATE home work. All whilst they are prohibited from using AI (and of course many still use it). Not sure whether that is better or worse than your experience…

@syntaxseed@phpc.social That is terrible. At the very least hopefully you can help your son feel like he doesn't have to use AI. The whole adoption of AI by so many people just makes me depressed at this point. We are literally just going to turn into the people in Wall-E the direction society is heading.
