- Another day, another click-baity title about AI. Of course the article is more nuanced than its title, but still... I now learn much more than ever and it's all because of agents. There's something great for learning about a machine that can explain in various ways without getting tired of repeating and without ego.by JodieBenitez
- This is another nonsensical AI-hate article. HN has a cluster of users motivated to posting AI-hate. AI is a general-purpose tool; you can trivially use it for learning or for evading learning.
Consider for example something as familiar as coffee. It can stimulate you, but if you chronically over-consume it, it will inevitably ruin your sleep and make you more fatigued. This doesn't make coffee antithetical to energy.
A fairer title to an article would be "AI reshapes learning", but people prefer making bombastic, clickbait, and false claims instead.
by OutOfHere - I bet humans will take the path of least resistance. Maybe in the future we will need gyms for the mind, who knows...by yomismoaqui
- I'm anti-AI to write code (coz' I simply love it since +40 years, so why should I ask something to do it for me?), but the title is just click-bait anyway. The article itself even has some clues that contradict the title. I precisely often use it to learn stuff, nothing else. Because you never stop learning about code. Granted I don't use AI the way 99% people do, that's for sure (I never felt the need to pay for it TBH).
