> AI seems to be a technology that will be increasingly relevant

That's why you don't understand the dismissive comments. The reality is that the technology sucks for actually doing anything useful. Mandating that kids work with a poor tool just because it's trendy right now is the height of foolishness.

Yeah, sorry, but I really don’t have the patience for these kinds of comments anymore. The technology is obviously useful in many scenarios, even if it’s overhyped. College essays, for example, are an area that needs to be entirely rethought because of LLMs.
