Aging into our senior years in a future where the generation filling our prescriptions, paving our roads & funding our pensions can't read a f*cking email without asking #ChatGPT v38 to summarize & workflow it for them is going to be a real delight. \s 😑 #aging #parenting #AI #CdnPoli #education

@syntaxseed@phpc.social This is the number 1 issue I have with schools adopting AI so quickly. Imagine if in 2009 schools were like "we think social media is going to be very important in the future so we are mandating all classes use Facebook" and how we are still only *now* learning just how negatively social media affects people (and children in particular).

@syntaxseed@phpc.social That's the whole point. Critical thinking makes for less controllable people who question authority. That's why Texas keeps trying to ban teaching it.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social Yup. As a professor in a graduate program, I expect to be long since retired before these folks reach my level…. While my university is doing a good job at embracing/teaching ‘responsible’ AI, I shudder to think what kids are being taught (or not taught) at the lower levels of education and what bodes for the future workforce and future adults.

@syntaxseed@phpc.social Do you know what the objective of the lesson is? There may be legitimate reasons related to AI literacy or AI fluency, but without knowing the objective of the lesson, it's hard to judge. Hopefully the students aren't learning that it's just easier to use AI all the time. Cognitive struggle is important. You could always ask to see the teacher's lesson plan...
