@vvvivi 💫 @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber I hadn't realized that students already "rely on it." Jeez, this downturn happened fast.

@muhkayohMatt Jordan @vvvivi 💫 @cwebberChristine Lemmer-Webber yeah as a college student right now I've seen a few fellow students rapidly lose their ability to understand and do basic things in their field. Once a friend who's a computer science major got the exact same error message that I had dealt with before so I explained what the issue was and how to fix it, and I watched him ignore what I said, copy and paste into ChatGPT, copy and paste the result into his code, and get more errors (rinse and repeat). I truly fear for the future of the world
