    And you think that teaching kids to use ChatGPT to figure out how to fix a broken fence gate, rather than, I dunno, teaching them Woodshop, is a good use of teachers’ time?

      Which one do you think they’re more likely to have 24/7 in their pocket: an AI assistant on a smartphone, or a chisel?

      Even today, the number of people with a multi-tool or a screwdriver, are much fewer than those with a smartphone. Show them a flint and striker, and they look at you like some doomsday prepper nutjob.
