AI is here to stay. Instead of shouting to the wind and pining for a world that doesn't exist, this educator needs to adapt -- or die. Probably will end up doing the later before the former. It is very fitting and very apropo to this life that the irony of the pursuit of knowledge has been distilled down into an algorithm that feels nothing, cares for nothing, wants for nothing. It has no life to live, yet is approaching perfection in its execution in all human knowledge endeavors.
It's as if the entire time that which those like him hold sacred, knowledge and its worldly pursuit, has been shown to be nothing more than yet another vanity and a form of pride itself. I see no difference here in those that likely carried with them pride of tilling the land by hand, how they must felt when machines came along and did it that much better, faster, cheaper and without a care in the world. What were the teachers of the manual labor saying in the last industrial revolution?
I don't really feel sorry for him or the rest of the prideful educators, perched in their ivory towers. The day of reckoning has finally come for them and I'm here for it.
