The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they’re using the AI tool again more.

      I’m from the “show your work, you won’t carry a calculator around when you’re in the real world” generation. This hits home hard.

        While im from the early “Not much in life needs manual calculation, and if it does we already have a calculator on us at all times” generation haha.

        Honestly, I could work harder on practicing mental calculations even now, but I see vastly more value in continuing my learning of technology to improve my career and hobbies.
