I do want people to argue or point out flaws. But presenting a false dichotomy is not a well-reasoned reply.

The rebuttal is very simple. I'll try and make it a bit less emotionally charged and clear even if your original opinion did not appear to me to go through the same process:

"While some may use the tool irresponsibly, others will not, and therefore there's no need to restrict the tool. Society shouldn't handicap the majority to accommodate the minority."

You can choose to not engage with this critique but calling it a "false dichotomy" is in poor form. If anything, it makes me feel like you're not willing to entertain disagreement. You state that you want to start a discussion by expressing your opinion but I don't see a discussion here. I observe you expressing your opinion and dismissing criticism of that opinion as false.

> even if a minority can use them properly.

Most students today are AI fluent. Most teachers aren't. Students treat AI like Google Search, StackOverflow, GitHub, and every other dev tool.

		Some students treat AI like those things. Others are effectively a meat proxy for AI. Both ends of the spectrum would call themselves "AI fluent." I don't think the existence of the latter should mean we restrict access to AI for everyone, but I also don't think it's helpful to pretend AI is just this generation's TI-83.
