Submission + - ChatGPT is Just a 'Way of Avoid Learning', Believes Noam Chomsky (esquiremag.ph) 1
But it's not quite as black and white as that. Chomsky admits that should students resort to ChatGPT than doing the work themselves, then it might be an indication that the education system is failing its students if they're so willing to avoid learning altogether.
"[If it] has no appeal to students, doesn't interest them, doesn't challenge them, doesn't make them want to learn, they'll find ways out," said Chomsky.
From that perspective, it might infer that ChatGPT could just be a symptom instead of the root cause of something going wrong in our society today. Has the oversaturation of information negated the pursuit of knowledge? Has advanced technology only made it easier for humans to try less? Has society crumbled so much that humanity is willing to let AI take over?
