I was reading summaries online 25 years ago as well.

Hell, in Italy we used to have an editor called Bignami make summaries of every school topic.

In any case, I don't know what to think about all of this.

School is for learning, if you skip the hard part you not gonna learn, your lost.

Instead of learning the things that can be done by ai, learn how to use the ai as that’s the only edge you got left.

I honestly think (you and) I'm missing something!

What you say is obvious to me and provably correct. I just can't argue with your statement no matter what and have been making comments in alignment with yours, just with way, way more text.

We are both being downvoted - I can't even see your post (it's so grayed out) and I've started to get those "You're posting too fast. Please slow down. Thanks." myself, that is indicative of post throttling that kicks in on heavy downvotes. It took me 5 retries, waiting ~40 minutes each time and failing between tries to get this to finally post but I waited because this comment was important for me to put out there. I'm not going to stick around to keep waiting, retrying and posting again as I have other things to do in my life, so I will just abandon commenting altogether.

"AI" is changing society fundamentally forever and education needs to change fundamentally with it. I am personally betting that humans in the future, outside extreme niches, are generalists and are augmented by specialist agents.

I have a hypothesis that future software engineers will be a human generalist (the person) augmented by a large diverse group of specialist agents (the tools). The human generalist will keep their specialist agents fine-tuned, trained and upto date so that they generate implementations precisely as the human generalist specifies them.

This won't be limited to software engineering but looking at how well this thought process is polling here on HN, I'll pause :).

Are you and I missing something big or is the bigger crowd in denial?
