The answer is quite simply that if AI companies don’t get a grip on it, they will be age verified by law next.

I’m dead serious. If the class of 2030 can’t reason, the law is going to catch up quick when somebody brings that idea into view.

Do you think using AI should be prohibited for people under 18? Or limited to certain areas/classes/topics?
gjsman-1000•5mo ago
I think that general purpose AI, similar to ChatGPT; may need to be restricted from anyone under 18, due to the ability to defeat learning outcomes, with teachers quitting at record levels than fight it (seriously, some states are at 1 in 6 turnover annually).

I think that focused AI, such as an AI embedded in Quizlet or another learning platform, may be tolerated due to being explicitly designed to prevent harming learning outcomes.

Basically, if it’s AI specifically restricted to help you learn - go right ahead. If it’s general purpose AI that could, possibly, destroy your ability to learn or become your parasocial relationship - block it until you’re 18.

In the grownups vs children the grownups win often enough. So the kids won some ground. ChatGPT could learn what assignments students are currently working on. (That is intelligence!)

We could also come to our senses and consider if homework is a reasonable demand? It creates a disadvantage if the home situation isn't ideal.

Not a lot of jobs require additional work from home hours after the shift. If it is so sensible why not add it to every job?

If one could chose most would much rather have some extra free time when young than when old.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
