Anyone can learn anything if they put their mind to it. Sure. But the question is: does it scale?

School has always been exactly the same way. Students who want to learn will learn. Students who do not will not. ChatGPT changes nothing for the latter, it is a tool for the former.

As a teacher, I have to tell you this is 100% wrong.

Well it’s right, but you can turn a student from one who doesn’t want to learn into one who does.

You can absolutely motivate unwilling or uncooperative students to learn. I have done it many times.

I'm not saying you can't switch between being one of those students, that's a whole other thing.
