Every student falsely accused of cheating will be one less ally teachers have when they start complaining about being replaced by AI.

HN and the tech community as a whole need to realize that education will actually still be one of the most hands-on jobs well into the future.

Students already have the entire internet at their disposal, the wealth of all human knowledge right in their hands, it's been over an entire internet generation at this point. I'd go as far as to argue many courses on YouTube are much higher quality than what they recieve in a classroom. Are students learning more than ever?

No, they are not, in fact many argue it's worse than ever, English comprehension and writing have regressed significantly.

Students often need support from their teachers, teachers often are more present than their parents. It simply isn't the case that most people will be a self-taught learner with an AI.

I do agree educators should pivot to more hands on, non-writing lessons such as debates, instead of written papers, but we're not going to improve writing skills without having written papers..
