> No duh, the point is that you flex your mental muscles on the tasks AI can't do, like effective organization.

AI can do better organization than you, it's only inertia and legalities that prevent it from happening. See, without good education, you aren't even able to find a place for yourself.

> The most harmful myth in all of education is the idea that you need to master some basic building blocks in order to move on to a higher level.

That "myth" is supported by abundant empirical evidence, people have tried education without it and it didn't work. My lying eyes kind of confirm it too, I had one hell of time trying to use LLM without getting dumber... it comes so natural to them, skipping steps is seductive but blinding.

> I don't see the need for this kind of compulsory education, and it's doing much more harm than good.

Again, long standing empirical evidence tells as the opposite. I support optional education but we can't even have a double blind study for it - I'm pretty sure those who don't go to school would be home-schooled, too few are dumb enough to let their uneducated children chose their manner and level of education.
