The Show Must Go On

I think the work of a teacher may not be relevant for that much longer. 

Neither will a university for that matter.

TVET may still be good. Let kids work with their hands. Tactile learning.

Book smarts will soon be overrated.

It probably already is.

With ChatGPT and friends' presence.

And the mindless rubbish we see online.

What will happen to children of the future?

Will they be mindless drones without original thought?

Because AI has all the answers

Or will we be super smart, due to the knowledge we have access to...

I think it's the former.

Compare my generation and my parents.

They were smarter and much more skilled in surviving. In adulting.

I am quite hopeless. My children more so.

Adulting is hard. I'm not sure I know how to do it properly.

[Does anyone?]

Btw this post is human written.

I declare that it is true.

Ask me anything about it and I will be able to tell you.

The context, the examples, the feelings.

Not like my FYP student just now.

Whatever questions we asked her,

she replied with "It's all in the report Miss"

Now, WHERE HAVE I HEARD THAT BEFORE???

To the willing AI slaves of the world

Mindless and thoughtless

I wish one day you will wake up and realise

That you have become irrelevant

OR you could have a flash of brilliance

and use AI for your good

and earn tons of money from the venture

and you can come back to me and say

"Look Miss, I am now successful"

(despite not passing my FYP)

However the likelihood of that is pretty slim

Seeing how lost you were

You will be likely lost for another 10-20 years of your life

Good luck

You will need it

So, enough ranting and rambling

I have said my peace for today

I wish I had the brilliance of prose like Tennyson

but I don't

So here is my product

Take it or leave it

None of us will be any wiser

BUT I would have felt better

I was glad I didn't lash out at reprimand that AI student

She was already anxious (as she said)

Like a well planned script

"Remember, if there are too many questions...

feign mental health issues!"

Bloody !@#$%^&*()
