alt Hacker News>Take a lin alg test, watch the 'Essence of lin alg' videos, take comparable test again
Uh huh, and what if the videos make me more generally interested in the topic? How would you measure that on a test?
Your view seems needlessly pessimistic and myopic. Just because something might not increase a number on a test that doesn't make it pointless.
I'm actually quite optimistic, was pointing out that, at least to to me, AI slop already produces better results than big educational content creators. For something concrete, even if not classic math, I credit direct LLM interaction highly for accelerating my understanding of CPU design and compiler tech.
