I see your point, but calculators(good ones, at least) are accurate 100% of the time. AI can hallucinate, and in a medical settings it is crucial that it doesn’t. I use AI for some insignificant tasks but I would not want it to replace my doctor’s learning.
Also, calculators are used to help kids work faster, not to do their work for them. Classroom calculators(the ones my schools had, at least) didn’t solve algebraic equations, they just added, subtracted, multiplied, divided, exponentiated, rooted, etc. Those are all things that can be done manually but are rudimentary and slow.
I get your point but AI and calculators are not quite the same.
Fair enough - it’s not the most concrete of comparisons and those are good points, but I do feel there is an amplification of ludditism around AI just because it’s new.
