I’ve been working with so many students who turn to it as a first resort for everything. The second a problem stumps them, it’s AI. The first source for research is AI.
It’s not even about the tech, there’s just something about not wanting to learn that deeply upsets me. It’s not really something I can understand. There is no reason to avoid getting better at writing.
it happens in the workplace too
i have seen cases where even if a course is useless and just fluff to sell you more courses, managers will ask you to finish it so they can tick that box and justify whatever they spent on it
they really don’t care if you actually learned anything, they just wanna put that on paper.
