If we decide to ban smartphones from schools we should ban them from work too. I'm supposed to be writing an article right now and instead I'm here. Then we should ban them from streets so that people have to pay attention to where they are going and the things going on around them. At that point we'd have something like functioning human beings again instead of mindless zombies. We could still have terminals for plugging into the Machine but our time with it should be regulated (like it already is with research clusters) so that we don't waste energy. There, the whole problem is solved and all it takes is a global butlerian jihad.
Honestly, just erase all graded homework, papers included. All of it. It wasn't even good at anything to begin with and we would just cheat off each other, but now it's even worse.

This has always seemed overblown to me. If students want to cheat on their coursework, who cares? As long as exams are given in a controlled environment, it's going to be painfully obvious who actually studied the material and who had ChatGPT do it for them. Re-taking a course is not going to be fun or cheap.
Maybe I'm oversimplifying this, but it feels like proctored testing solves the entire problem.

Ah yes. The education system. Yeah. That one. where the kids gets slain periodically and systematically. That education system. Where they don't get food. The one where they are killed in systematically over and over without reaction. It's being destroyed by ai? OK.
