Even accepting the premise that AI produces useful writing (which no one should), using AI in education is like using a forklift at the gym. The weights do not actually need to be moved from place to place. That is not the work. The work is what happens within you.

Following your recent example: We spent many hours rewriting the explanations of co- and contravariance in "Kotlin in Action". Would ChatGPT be able to generate a passable (to some degree) explanation of those concepts? I'm pretty sure it would. Was this time wasted? Absolutely not.

Because, while some people value hand-crafted things over machine-produced ones, despite the benefits that machines bring to production, I value brain-crafted thought over machine-produced one. And as long as I can have the choice to not have any machine-produced thought in my life, I will.

But the mechanics are (mostly) still solid, and the improved graphics quality works really well with the same old quirky style. We'll definitely play the DLC when it comes out :)
