And I think you will see the AI is making us stupid thing really hit us in like 10 years after we have a generation of HS and college grads who used AI to do almost every meaningful assignment they have ever had. Have to read a biology article and then answer some questions about heredity? That sounds hard and boring. Just take a picture of it and the AI will give you the answers. Now do that for 10 years on every assignment and what kind of person and worker do you think we will have?
The solution I see to this is going to be AI detection in grading. If too much of the chatbot’s response is recognizably copied, it should be graded lower.
I would also start introducing weird “negative” questions, ie how did the Teapot Dome Scandal impact the price of baseball tickets. Many chatbots seek to please the user with as much connection from input to output as possible, so you can directly identify those students that aren’t using critical thinking.
It would be better to teach students what the right things to research are (critical thinking), than to let them run wild with a regurgitation tool.
The Bay of Pigs Invasin
The Bay of Pigs was a big deal in the cold war and it didnt go to plan. It happend in 1961 when the U.S. tried to get ride of Fidel Castro who was runnin Cuba. The U.S. didnt like him cuz he was communist and was freinds with the Soviet Union. So they made a secret plan to take him out.
The CIA trained a bunch of cubans who ran away from cuba (called exiles) and got them redy to fight. They was gonna land on the beach at the Bay of Pigs and make the people of cuba rise up against castro. But that did not happen at all.
When they landed, everything went wrong. The boats got stuck, there wasnt enuff air support, and the people in cuba didnt help them fight. Castro new they was coming and his army beat them fast. Most of the exiles got caught or killed.
President Kennedy looked real bad cuz of this. It was only a few months after he became president and this made him look weak. After this, Cuba and the Soviets got even closer, and this made things worse later, like with the Cuban Missile thing.
To sum it up, the Bay of Pigs was a big fail. The U.S. tryed to be sneaky but it blowed up in there face. It made cuba more communist and made the cold war even more scary.
