    Aye, when grades are the goal then using AI to cheat your way into better grades seems rational at the time; educational institutions need to be reformed so that grades are not the indicator, for the indicator has become the goal, not the actual education.

    AI writes essays for you

    Complains about no job you studied for existing

    AI writes for you

    you studied for?

    I think I see the problem here.


    More seriously, most people don’t end up working what they studied for. And the job market absolutely does suck.

      To me studying is the learning you do. Writing essays is purely so the teacher can see what you’ve learnt.

      So I can see how not writing essays doesn’t contradict learning.

          If you’re learning a writing course, maybe that’s a relevant skill to have. Often it’s not however.

            Learning how to share your thoughts in a way the the reader will understand is a skill universally useful no matter the future white-collar job, from making sparkling water to software engineering.

    Wtf are kids doing in college now anyway? All the jobs their going for have been flooded with slop that corporations love. I have no idea how a college student would survive today.

    AI isn’t what is destroying jobs.

    But it looks like it destroyed your education. That one you can fix.
