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

    I have zero hope that the teachers or administration will listen to me or even read my entire letter (why bother, have #AI summarize it for you!) but I'm just at such a loss. Our kids are going to be guinea pigs in the most potentially devastating experiment humanity has ever conducted on itself. WHAT IF IT'S NOT F**KING GREAT?? What if we DO create a generation with absolutely broken critical thinking & problem solving skills??? #LLM #AI #parenting #education

    @syntaxseed@phpc.social teachers don’t like ai because the kids are using it to cheat, but they love using ChatGPT to write emails for them. They assign shit assignments that use the “art” ai. Or one they love is to compare how an LLM did on creating a timeline in the name of media literacy. It doesn’t help that it’s coming down from the boards either. “Use this great tool to create your tests and slides! You’ll have far more time to spend with the students!” There has been no thought into environmental impacts, or hallucinations. It’s bleak in education right now. (Sorry. Rant over)

    @syntaxseed@phpc.social The education sector loves technical snake oil that they think they can use as One Weird Trick to avoid hiring more teachers and reducing class sizes.
