Hello,
This is a fairly long article, but I highly recommend
it for you to actually read:
https://www.currentaffairs.org/news/ai-is-destroying-the-university-and-learning-itself
As some of the first students who have had ubiquitous
access to reasonably useful* AI, you will be deeply
impacted by how it affects education.
No doubt have your own thoughts on the appropriate
use, whether it saves you work, whether it would be ok
for your professors to use AI to generate content they
present to you or to grade your submissions.
Please resist the temptation to have AI summarize the
article for you, and follow through on some of the
many referenced articles. I hope it will help you
reflect on the issues we all struggle with here.
"May you live in interesting times." indeed.
-Jan
* Well. Compared to where AI was, say, even just two
years ago.
