I'm 100% with you. I teach at a high performing private school, and it's discouraging to see so many teachers going over to the dark side. They tell kids not to use it to write for them but say it's okay for research. I disagree with anything that results in kids thinking less. When I tell them what I thing, they look at me with a confused, annoyed look. This is definitely one of the main reasons I'm retiring from teaching at the end of this month.

A.I. is good at mimicry, not so great when it comes to originality. People will always be drawn to artists with a singular voice, whether it is in writing or music or other arts. You cannot program a soul and life experience. Is A.I. a threat? Absolutely, but there are billions of other humans who can also compete for your job. At this point it may be best to adapt, there are ways to use A.I. and find new forms of expression that are uniquely human. Whether we like it or not, the genie is out of the bottle.
