  AI didn't invent "Its not X, its Y" style clickbait articles, it exposed what they really are.

    HNers aren't just using AI for articles — they're redefining the hacking of news.

  What a dumb article. Whenever you state that AI is helpful in an educational way because it "is better at writing essays" you clearly miss the point of going to college in the first place. The point is not to produce a well-written essay, the goal is to KNOW how to write a good essay. That's one of the skills you need to hone when going to college.

  Outsourcing writing, or summarizing, or X to an AI system is like using a cheatsheet on an exam. Sure, you'll get a good grade, but you've learned nothing in the end.

  And what has politics to do with this?

  This is disingenuous and weirdly political.

  When I went to college I got my ass kicked by being forced to do difficult things the hard way (to grossly over simplify my education) which in turn gave me a level of intellectual independence.

  There is certainly theatre to universities and I agree the models are broken for what they are used for, but for the institutions that are truly challenging students, the answers are not the point. The challenge is.

  AI removes that challenge and creates nothing but a dependency. That's the real issue here, not the failings of higher Ed

  This is very normal and expected. Any technological improvement just exposes old bottlenecks and moves bottlenecks to new places. Technology exposes the constraints that the old world relied on passively. A good example is the closed book exam system.
