How come? You had different experiences? Which LLMs, what prompts? Give me all the details that supports your claim that it is not true. My experiences completely differ from yours, so the way I use it, it is very much true.
That said, it is probably pointless to argue with full-blown AI-skeptics.
People had lots of great and productive-enhancing experiences with LLMs, you did not, great, that does not reflect the tool, it reflects your way of using the tool.
Huh, it is pretty much settled that kids from "good homes" have better school results then the ones from "bad homes". The kids themselves are under less stres, they eat better, they sleep more, they have someone who cares about their school results. The parents have more resources (time, ability, inclination) to intervene when things go badly regardless of what school does.
The Gates Foundation documented that underperforming students tend to actually gain on the average throughout the school year.
The problem is that those same students lose terribly over the summer break. Students from better socioeconomic strata gain over the summer break while those of lower socioeconomic strata do not. Thus, when the school year begins again, any gains made over the school year have been more than cancelled out over the summer.
This is one of the big arguments for year-round school.
how does that work? they forget everything they learned in the past year if they don't go to school for two months? i can understand setbacks, increase of behavioral issues, but completely cancelling out?
Over 3 months it's easy to forget something that you probably only had a tenuous grasp on. My father was a high school teacher and loathed Christmas break. "I spend 4 months pouring information in, and it's gone in 4 days."
In addition, higher socioeconomic status children keep making progress during the summer.
"The study has faced criticism over its methodology, as it only studied rape convictions in Sweden. Experts point to the fact that just a small proportion of rapes in the country are reported to the authorities.
Jerzy Sarnecki, a criminologist at Stockholm University, dismissed the study as “meaningless” as it only examined figures for convicted rape.
“They’ve only looked at convicted people, and they make up a fraction of all rapists,” he told Swedish broadcaster SVT."
Even ignoring the above, I can think of many reasons, statistical and otherwise for the apparent difference. Perhaps you should try using your brain matter to do the same rather than just posting random links.
I repeat: I don't see second generation citizens turning to crime or radicalisation in huge numbers.
More racism on their part - that's the problem, as I said. I also very much doubt that is true, but generally people do generally segregate by economic means, and first generation immigrants understandably tend to live in their own communities, everywhere. Where else do you find people to talk to, who understand you; where else do you even find dinner or some decent proper tea?
No. I am suggesting that governments invest more into ensuring their aging population is healthy instead of draining every bit of life from them by making them work later and later.
Some did well, some did bad. Completely unsuspicious gauss curve you can easily achieve if you are aiming for it when you grade. Nobody's gonna argue because we signed up for computer science and physics is just there to be passed and forgotten.
Of course the problem was me. I needed to understand to remember. Many people don't need that. They can reproduce completely arbitrary piece of text they were "taught". The grade I got from him was the only non top level semester grade I got in my about nine years of learning physics across five different teachers. And it's not that he hated me or something. We barely interacted. He was just terrible at explaining things and I didn't have a book I could just read instead of trying to understand him. Terrible teacher can make all the difference.
