This is mostly unrelated to the post, but, similarly to everything being “slammed” I’m tired of everyone “saying the quiet part out loud”.

In an ideal world, sure. School, largely, hasn’t taught that in a long time. That’s not how the incentive structures work. School is incentivized by grades, grades don’t go up with learning, teaching is hard, memorizing and regurgitating? That’s much easier. Tests have been changed to reflect that.

Unless, you’re not American that is. I wouldn’t have any experience with a somewhat functional education system.

Current media and institutions already try to control the conversation and how people think, and I can see futures where AI could be used by those in power to do this more effectively.

You don’t think that’s already happening considering how Sam Altman and Peter Thiel have ties?
