It may be useful, but I'm not wrong here.
Software engineers and the like are too-frequently technology fetishists that are like the proverbial guy who has a hammer and thinks everything is a nail.
Even if "innovative games with cool interfaces" is the right way to educate kids, which is very unlikely to be true, those games aren't going to be spat out by ChatGPT.
And if they can be spat out by ChatGPT, why even bother educating most of those kids at all?
Irrelevant even if true.
> Even if "innovative games with cool interfaces" is the right way to educate kids, which is very unlikely to be true,
Presumably baseless personal opinion offered without even attempting to provide support.
> those games aren't going to be spat out by ChatGPT.
This is just easily demonstrated to be false already.

Dramatic Irony
ChatGPT is a massive pipe that will allow for increase in throughput of information into curious brains for almost no cost. With increasingly more valuable answers over time. And it can already quiz you on math and teach you math.
It's amazing. I love it.
Sites like
are way better than the shiny new toy ChatGPT. ChatGPT will confidently tell you nonsense if it's given the wrong prompt and you have no chance to know in advance.
Unless your goal is to turn humans into mindless drones which are easily persuaded and uncritical, it's possibly the worst thing to learn from.
It's amazing for learning. ChatGPT is information learning superpowers. Give me more power please. More power please.
> It's amazing. I love it.
It's pretty clear you're a true believer, who takes the marketing fantasy at face value.
But it's still a fantasy. They said the same thing about the web in 1995.
Now the web is a big source of misinformation, spam and ads.
ChatGPT is new and that's why it's results are impressive at the moment but people are already exploiting it's flaws.
What a year and ads and spam will lower it's usefulness.
Most people learn by doing stuff with their hands, not by reading a paragraph.

More family time! And higher quality of education outcomes for very cheap! It's truly the iphone moment for AI including the increasingly cheaper pipelines to train it. I remember how just a couple months ago it was still costing $50k+ to realistically get something resembling GPT-3+ performance. Now that's way less.
Wohoo!!! Innovation abounds!!! <3
Didn't work out.
Technology can't correct human flaws.
It's always the same error to think it will work, but in the end it's just a reason to reduce funds for education.
