[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just wait until they fully get the kids using AI to complete their assignments, which is what Sandy Anderson is pushing. Because she says kids need to know how to use AI to succeed in the future.[/quote]

There are people out there who believe that white collar workers should be trained in AI, and view it as similar to transitioning from using a typewriter to a word processor. So instead of writing out memos word for word, we should be writing outlines and feeding AI sources to be incorporated into paragraphs, and then editing through those paragraphs. It would be similar to a biglaw partner tasking an associate with writing the first draft of a memo, and then editing the associate's work. I tried it it once on the recommendation of a colleague, and really hated it. But maybe there is something to be said for it.

Even if the future of white collar work involves using AI to draft memos, students need to know how to do the entire drafting process. Lawyers don't start out as biglaw partners. They start out as associates doing first drafts, and to learn to edit drafts you need to learn how they're built.[/quote]

In my federal job, I do this. It's the only way I can handle the workload. AI starts it. I edit and finish it. I think there's merit in teaching people how to do this but not at the elementary or secondary level. College maybe. [/quote]
