Students that embrace AI might outperform traditional students in situations where AI performs well. However, they will perform worse in all other metrics, and significantly worse when they don't have access to AI.
This isn't theory. Teachers are already seeing it.
The point of school isn't to do work. The point is to learn, and typing prompts into genAI isn't learning.
I don't agree 100%, and I'm still trying to find out why this line in particular stood out to me so much.
Will you allow me to twist your words a little to play devils advocate?
Of course I agree with you that schools are for learning, and by prompting GenAI to generate an image, you don't learn the basics of photography. But AI can be used as a tool, and usage of tools can be taught. So you still do learn something when using an AI, and that is how to use that AI. When to use that AI, and when usage of that AI does not help at all.
And I think that is what krisevol was trying to say. Students that know how/when/if to use AI for something, have an advantage over students that don't have that knowledge.
I agree with you part way. But that's why I'll add till a certain age you shouldn't be allowed to. Like you shouldn't use a calculator till a certain age, you shouldn't use ai till a certain age.
