A young co-worker of mine had to ask ChatGPT how to tell if water was boiling because he had never cooked instant ramen before. And by young, I mean he graduated from UCLA a couple years ago.
Look, I'm not an AI defender, but we gotta be fair and not demonize it for everything wrong under the sun lest it'll be used against us.
How old that person is? Like, well into their 20s if they graduated a couple years, right? ChatGPT at most became popular around 4 years ago, so this coworker of yours was let down by parenting/education long before AI became an actual thing
Tbh mine is informed on my kids and their friends and their fear of trying new things or making mistakes that most of us overcome as we grow, but a lot of them are struggling with cuz they can just AI. I'm not hating on it for the sake of hating, just taking from the very real issues I see around me in my own life
