    You’re completely ignoring all my arguments.

    No I’m not, I addressed them. LLMs not being able to do maths/spelling is a known shortcoming. Anyone using it to do that is literally using it wrong. The studies you talk about were ridiculous, I know the ones you’re talking about. Of course people that don’t learn something won’t know how to do it, for example - but the fact that they can do it with AI is a positive. Obviously getting AI to write an essay means that the person will feel less “proud” of their work, as one of the studies said - but that’s not a “bad” thing. Just like how people don’t need to learn how to hunt and gather anymore doesn’t mean that it’s a bad thing - the world as it is, and as it always will be from here on out, means we don’t need to know that unless we want to do it.

    Again - AI is a tool, and idiots being able to use it to great effect doesn’t mean that the tool is bad. If anything that’s a showing of how good the tool is.

      Those studies aren’t about them feeling less proud, they’re about the degradation of critical thinking skills.

      I have repeatedly said that isn’t worth anything largely because it doesn’t do anything I can’t do with relative ease. Why do you think it’s so great? What do you honestly use it for?
