    The title is not very descriptive of the article itself, but indeed this spells the death of boring uninspired homework texts that students mostly just lazily reformulate from Wikipedia or similar.

    Academic text will probably also have to become more inspired and less papermill like, as sadly many social-sciences especially have become.

    I think both of these “disruptions” are ultimately a change for the better, like most automation.

    I can see how there would be some concerns about how to use it in an academic setting. And it does allow an easy way to cheat in some circumstances. But this just seems like fearmongering to me.

      Did you read the article? I did not get a sense of fearmongering when reading it.

        Sorry, I was commenting on the quote form Noam Chomsky, not specifically the article. I agree the article was well balanced and covered both sides decently. I should have been more specific.
