Anecdotally (but I guess reflected in broader research) I was just talking to two friends who both work in software, and they complained that recent hires are so dependent on ChatGPT that these hires' own problem-solving skills are almost non-existent.

Statements like 'the consensus is that with only moderate climate action, global warming by 2100 will likely stay below 3°C' by @hausfath.bsky.social and @billgates.bsky.social is not supported by the science and provides a false sense of security.
Which is extremely dangerous, in my opinion.

"An important predictor of future warming is Earth's energy imbalance [..] It is rising much more quickly than predicted by most climate models, possibly because of a darker planet corresponding to a large decrease in Earth's albedo which is near an all-time low "

I think our students are failing to develop critical thinking and synthesis skills because they use chatbots instead of their brains.
Do you have any good strategy that uses these tools and counteracts it?
I ask them to declare if they used bots and verify the info.
I don’t think that’s enough.
