That argument is great until someone gets maimed or killed because the "AI" got it wrong and the user didn't know enough to realize.
Because of an essay?
We need to teach people to work with technology. Not pretend it doesnt exist. When these models came out, the world changed. If you arent using them right now you are being left behind
The point of college is to teach people the material, not see if they can use an AI. The AI could be wrong, and we need people to know when it is wrong.
We still teach people arithmetic, even though calculators exist, because we want people to understand the logic and reason behind the tools they use.
