Not within the next year for real world complex solutions, but it’s heading towards that direction.

Maybe I’m wrong and ml models creating better ml models emerges suddenly, but it’s just too much of a stretch to think that it happens suddenly and becomes as competent as any real professional.

There’s still a lot missing for ai to be so good.

Actually, I really have no clue about this topic (professional education, the proper training of people into junior experts of a field), so it's hard to bring up any more points. I've never grown up or used ai for studying myself so maybe your point is correct. There's definitely a big risk of using (or abusing) ai because it can promote reliance on ai.

My point would be that this reliance is the way of the future (just like smartphones and apps) and certain people will still try to understand more about this topic and therefore educate themselves, but then that's the idea behind education.

So yeah, maybe the rational consensus is limiting the amount of AI used in education that is designed for developing real expertise, but allowing AI to assist people in everyday life.

Why use a smartphone for navigation when you can use a paper map, right?

It’s time that we let go of hindrances and embrace the technology that helps humans. If an AI can write a draft essay about a topic then I would like to use it for saving time. You eventually have to understand the topic and likely learn it by simply reviewing and adjusting the product. It’s much better than crawling through search engines and books for days.

It is nice to ask for a simple code skeleton that gives an outline of a solution for something while you work on something else. I increased my productivity because I don’t have to google anymore for most lack of knowledge. It’s also good at analyzing code and concisely describing something. However, it only gets so far in my use case. But it’s impressive nonetheless.
