I don't see the point of universities at all anymore. They were originally places you went because you couldn't learn a thing anywhere else. Now you can learn anything, anywhere. Example: If you want to learn to do something with your hands, it normally needs to be taught in person, so you can try to do it, fail, the teacher tells you what you did wrong, shows you how, you do it again and it works. But this can now almost entirely be done with AI. A YouTube video shows you how. You practice it on camera. An AI watches the video, tells you where you went wrong, and shows you specific clips to improve. You do it again until you get it right. The piece of paper you get from a University doesn't need to come from "A University". Any organization that can give you a test in person can see whether you do the thing right or not and give you a certification if you do. So really all we need now is an AI Khan Academy and independent testing/certification. | ||

but in the end what is the point of learning when you have a machine with all the answers and can do your work? | ||
