Can’t think properly seems to be the real issue. That’s one of the reasons that SE domain is mostly in ruin. AI won’t help, only to delay a bigger mess.

I agree in part, but I think AI does meaningfully make it harder for leadership to detect their bullshit.

How do you graduate your engineering degree without being able to think?

Even my colleagues who cheated their way through uni still needed critical thinking to do that and get away with cheating without being caught.

People might hate this but being a good cheat requires a lot of critical thinking.
