The younger generations already struggle with technology because the guts have been hidden away their whole lives. They never had to understand a directory structure or a configuration file just to get a game running.

Having an LLM would turn that up to 11. Wishing you had AI in college is like wishing you had a car to train for a marathon. It’ll help a lot, if you ignore the actual goal of the work.

I don't think it is much different than the fresh grad that you interview that was clearly carried by his classmates in all his group projects.

Most of my professors in college gave boring, monotonous lectures from power point slides. They were simply going through the motions, so likewise I treated the work as a means to an end --a piece of paper to say I did the college thing. I had 3 professors out of the dozens I had that did not fit that mold and I studied hard so as not to make their passion null and void.

A professor's primary job is to instill interest in their students, which AI should not affect. If a student doesn't have interest or passion, whether self-taught and/or instilled, they will be mediocre at best in whatever profession they picked.

“I wish I had classmates in college who would have carried me in all my group projects so I didn’t have to do any of the work” is a very similar sentiment to your wish for having AI in college.

As someone who occasionally interviews fresh grads, do you know how best to detect this sort of person who only did the work to get the piece of paper? It’s important to be able to filter them out.
