Education isn't meant to prepare you for a job, if it was they'd let you use AI.

    I mean the reason they don't let you cheat is precisely so that you /are/ prepared for the job because you have to actually understand how it works

    It's so freaking interesting what the future will bring us regarding AI. I did generate an app just for try and wow wow wow. It's awesome. I mean, the base is the same you would do it. But since it adds error handling I could consider it even better than my code. But later, I added Auth, didn't apply on all views. The views were functions instead of classes but everything got nicely refactored by request and then I asked it to use my preferred db adapter (python dataset till I die!! Rewrote it completely in C# and JS!!) is that's not that popular but also did well, but then ofc, it still saved passwords plain text without salt. And a bunch, bunch of shit you actually need some knowledge for. If I said nothing and accepted all, I would kinda have a working app still. It just doesn't glue the components right together. I kinda hope it stays this way. Good for experts, sucks to hard for idiots. Kinda what AI is in general atm. I think, before end of year, we're all generating.

    Just as with the autocomplete, if you still don't use the AI autocomplete :p I'm in the top 1% of the world according to codeium stats. Do you know what that means? I smash on tab like almost no one does! It learns your coding and decisions and I program so much, that thing became me. Wouldn't be surprised if it gets a mania soon and disappears for a few months.

    wiki sucks. this doesn't mention it but the whole education system is literally built to make compliant slaves. there's books from the people who implemented it stating it

    @jestdotty Huh.

    I've heard something similar.

    General favoritism in school towards 'yes-men', while discouraging free thinkers etc. was / is supposed to result in obedient factory workers.

    Or something like that.

    It's a certificate of the willingness to spend your money and time on the certificate. People already graduate all the time without learning a thing by mooching off their friends or cheating, so AI wouldn't change a thing. Hell, they should also use AI to grade the assignments, that way professors could be free from their last annoying obligation, and dedicate themselves to research.
