HN Discussion:
  • AI amplifies both good and bad study habits; results depend on how students use it
  • ~The issue is a broken education system focused on credentials, not learning; AI just exposed it
  • Assessment structure should change: harder exams, optional homework, retakes
  • Using AI to do homework is like cheating at the gym — you skip the actual development
  • AI could also be a solution via oral examination-style tutoring/testing tools
