Locking this up and potentially taking down my post because 1) I am an AI skeptic 2) people aren’t interacting with the post in good faith. It’s always right to call out AI hype. The point was AI isn’t going away if the hype dies and being overly dismissive isn’t helping us navigate it.

But when you attach a file and ask it very specific questions, it does a fairly decent job of grounding its responses in the data. Here's a summary of the Walton Foundation report on AI saving teachers six hours a week. It took several minutes to run this so I'm not sure how practical that is.
