  • incomprehensible wiki = good

    i never said that, maybe i worded it poorly. What I’m saying is that simplifying a wiki article is detrimental to learning because it paints a wrong image. If i get a slop answer to a question about a wiki article I’m effectively avoiding the learning process that’d lead to me being more capable to maintain my system more effectively, not to mention that it teaches me to seek answers instead of taking the quick, risky and immoral shortcut. Sure, i guess AI can make it easier to understand, but these hobbyist pieces of software are meant to be used carefully by people who are willing to spend time to use them. If you don’t want to read the wiki, It’s okay, use something else, but using AI will eventually lead to issues.

    As for the rest of what you said (my bad if i misunderstood), i think that if the only useful use of AI in education comes AFTER learning the basics, it is essentially just useless, since if you manage to know the basics you are clearly able to go further
