Isn't it the point of the post though? Why challenge yourself to learn how to spell if AI can just fix it for you in 2 seconds?

Why learn anything if AI can do it for you?

I think that’s the whole point the article/comments are making.

Many things we used to learn are becoming obsolete by AI.

A analogy (if not the best one)3 People used to be much less sedentary, and in some ways healthier, before automobiles (or working from home).

So setting aside intentional exercise became much more necessary to be less sedentary and healthier.

But it requires discipline and motivation, and many people don’t exercise enough as a result.

Before AI, learning was a necessity to get things done. We had to check our own spelling/grammar before these tools existed. Etc.

Now, learning and using these skills will be simply for the “exercise” of using our brains in ways that were necessary before AI.

Some people will continue to code ok the side “for fun” or “for exercise”, but it will no longer be a means to simply getting something done — that can be done with AI.

Any you certainly won’t be doing for a company whose primary focus is to make money.

Yes. This is the question kids are also asking themselves as the discussion of AI companies solving white collar labor filters down.

A significant portion are deciding that the game is rigged. I don't know if I could look them in the eyes and tell them them that they're wrong.
