    If they are challenging students this way eventually people wont see any kind of value in going to a university. What you’re gonna shell out 10-40k a year to get told you can’t use something every employer is having their employees use 40 hours a week now?

    What the fuck is the point? Most people go learn a skill that can hopefully help them with future employment, they aren’t fulfilling this part anymore. Do we need so many anymore then? What else are you going for then other than some prestige and a paper saying you showed up.

      Externalizing all of the difficult thinking to an LLM won’t exactly make you a skilled individual

      So, yeah, if you plan to go to uni to just use LLMs because it’s less challenging to you, then there indeed is no point

      But there’s never no point in actually learning those skills yourself. Just as there’s not no point in learning how arithmetics work, even though you can just use a calculator

      An actual education. This whole attitude there’s no point to it is pretty messed up. We need people A LOT more educated in this country. It’s one of our biggest weaknesses.

        You need to get real, education in the US is on the way out. Are you gonna sit there and yell at the sky and say Americans need an education as they quickly stop caring? Universities need to rethink their business models.

        I didn’t choose this reality its just the way it is now.
