That is terrifying. But what is the trend? Maybe it’s historically low. I tried Googling around and could only find recent data of that same 2019 report.

Thanks!

Super interesting idea.

I don't have a ChatGPT account otherwise I'd try this myself but can someone try this question from the article, "how many hours are there in 1 day and 7 hours?" with and without the prompt?

I'm very curious if it has any effect on the result.

By your own wording, before you learned programming, you learned to compute by hand. Then programming served as a way of automating what you already knew, but you learned it first, and that's the key issue. Don't skip the foundational learning step.

LLMs are just today's flavor of automation. We've automated tasks in the past, and we will automate tasks in the future. Automation happened and will continue to happen regardless of shape and form.

I agree with the high-level sentiment, "We have to be very careful not to prepare our kids for the world we live in." Still, we must also be careful not to skip foundational subjects simply because they're suddenly easy to automate.

Maybe. But we also have historical personal communication and journal entries to judge by, and they’re rarely, if ever, written in this style.

Wow. Everything happens so fast now. Even condemning the next generation!
