At this time, I would not agree. That's because AI is literally knocking at the door for many use-cases and we haven't evolved with it yet(especially education). That will likely take another decade at this rate.

I believe the same reliance on Stack Overflow or Google for the most basic answers make people lazy and more impatient. This cheats people out of the process where you typically have these insights for wisdom. The AI also will not get "better" because it's capped at our collective understanding. Which fewer and fewer people will even contribute towards due to new AI-assisted habits.

Only time will tell if it makes people "better". There's no doubt it will be helpful and useful in many settings, especially in education. But this over-reliance makes you only as good as your tool. Which is what my original comment was trying to say.
