"Bill to Fund ‘AI Literacy’ in Schools" - since y'all teachers think AI is so bad, we're gonna force you to use it 🙄

@jbz Ugh.

I keep saying: if "AI" is improving so fast, there's no point in teaching "AI skills" because that will just be a bunch of workarounds that are made obsolete by better AI in a couple years.

If it instead stagnates, maybe this wasn't such an important thing to have skill in after all?
