And as our models got better, we were able to do more.
Um, I know because AI has sort of like come at us almost like, uh,
opening the floodgates it becomes sometimes difficult to realize like how amazing this all is like i look back five years ago and i know that like i would have been astounded by the progress made and right now like having something this powerful at your fingertips it lets you do so much more um we're all much productive coders at open ai and i assume all over the world because we have these models at our fingertips um and as they get better and better uh
we can use them to just make a bigger impact on the world.
And that's sort of how I see it and why I believe that students should keep doing what they're doing, because that is the path to growing and improving yourself.
And when you grow and improve yourself, you will be able to better use these tools
to, you know, address whatever issues are in the world or the state of the world at the time.
It just becomes a really powerful tool.
But you need to have, you know, the same skill sets, the fundamental aspects of being able to reason, being able to solve problems, being able to have the grit to sort of pull through whenever you hit blockers.
All of that is stuff that students can benefit from.
I do think there is value in school and education.
particularly in that it exposes you to many different people from many different walks of life, and there's sort of a collaborative human effort.
I do think, however, that whenever a new tool comes out, education does need to change.
Like when the calculator came out,
People had to reassess things.
Suddenly, doing just arithmetic was not necessary.
You still need to learn the basics of arithmetic, but now you could use the calculator to go one step beyond, one step more abstract.
Same thing with computers.
Whenever you have a new technological innovation,
It needs to be incorporated into the educational curriculum.
