Stupid in, stupid out applies to teaching as well. 🥲
ugh,we’re so fucked
Better they don’t learn anything at all then the lazy ones pass, right?!
I think this is stupid. Ai use is a symptom and can be controlled. But it is helpful when learning to see more advanced work so you learn how it all comes together.
But are they learning anything other than “AI will do it for me”?
I work in software. Have for 29 years. There will be no one writing software very soon. Like it or not, seems the ship has sailed. The company I work for has a goal of 100% AI generated code within the next 18 months. So might as well give these kids an A, I guess. It’s not going back to the old way.
why can’t we syndicate them out, now, so your kids can actually program?
Why would I want my kids to code at this point? AI codes better already. This isn’t like John Henry and the steam engine. This is John Henry vs. a space ship.
Why? That’s an easy one. Money. AI does it “better” and faster, according to pointy hair bosses that don’t care they’ve given every employee a nuke without a safety. Love the downvotes. I am working in this biz right now. Believe or don’t believe it. It’s already coming and practically here. I have not written code in the last 12 months and I am evaluated on how much AI I have used. We are pruning people that are not using it or willing to learn how to use it. You won’t stop it. I won’t stop it and certainly the government is not going to stop it. We can rage all we want. This is here now. It’s not going anywhere.
AI has better test coverage. Less bugs and vulnerabilities. Way faster. especially when a company uses a proper AI Software Development Lifecycle. Not better than humans by a little. By factors. And is probably the scariest thing in my orbit right now. Every company adopting this is only concerned about beating their competitor. So all notion of safely is completely out the window.
