i think AI might actually save homework not kill it.
in the school system that i was raised in, homework didn’t matter for grades. there were a few high stakes tests at the end of highschool kind of like the SAT that completely determined your future.

it was very stressful to have your whole future riding on one test but it worked fine as an education system.
i think AI will mean shifting toward this “big test” model of student assessment.

under this system, homework would just be for helping the teacher know where you need help.
kids who use AI to do their homework would just be cheating themselves.

pre chatgpt, it was in the kid’s interest to get the highest grades for the least amount of work.
post chatgpt, it’s in both the kid’s and the teacher’s interest for the homework to be as accurate a reflection of where the student needs help as possible.

chatgpt might make homework great again.
