"deskills"/"deskilled" my new favorite term.
Quick summary is thus: our position is that AI deskills students while the courses we teach are specifically about skills development, so AI use is antithetical to the goals of the course.

we had a hold alert at our building today; even though they announced soon afterward that it was for a routine canine drug sweep, it was not soon enough to stop a student from having a panic attack in my room and ending up curled up and weeping under my desk. a first for me-- probably not a last.
