Not remotely equivalent. Calculators didn't hallucinate and lead students down a path of confusion and wrong answers.

For what it gets correct, it is the replacement for everything. Thought itself can be outsourced. Education's purpose isn't simply to have bodies in seats serving as proxies to a machine.

And if LLMs could fix the hallucination problem, then they are more in a position to replace education itself versus being a tool for the student.
