alt Hacker News> AI seems to be a technology that will be increasingly relevant
That's why you don't understand the dismissive comments. The reality is that the technology sucks for actually doing anything useful. Mandating that kids work with a poor tool just because it's trendy right now is the height of foolishness.

Yeah, sorry, but I really don’t have the patience for these kinds of comments anymore. The technology is obviously useful in many scenarios, even if it’s overhyped. College essays, for example, are an area that needs to be entirely rethought because of LLMs.
God, so many edgy experts in here. Teaching kids that the "technology sucks" (i.e. what are its limitations, for one thing there's no "understanding", only a simulation of it) is also useful.
Yeah, yeah, for you who knows better than everything, you already know what they're going to teach from this press release, you already know it all, that's why you have no use for AI.
With little apology for breaking the HN civility rules. "They did it first."
