For people with children or working in education-related industries, how big is the impact of AI on education? You can't help but watch this video! Since OpenAI released ChatGPT, we internet practitioners have been both excited and terrified. Because in theory, AI 2.0 can help us solve everything, provided of course you trust it enough. Especially after the recent launch of plugins, the previous limitation of ChatGPT not being able to access the Internet has been completely solved.
In the past, ChatGPT's math ability has been relatively weak because it can't connect to the internet. However, now it can directly connect with Warfram Alpha's big data and instantly become a mathematics master.
Once upon a time, learning piano and programming was two nightmares for children. Children have to spend 3 hours practicing the piano without doing anything, and as parents, we are very anxious that if our children can't code, they won't be able to integrate into AI society in the future. But now, we don't have to worry about that anymore. GitHub, the world's largest codebase, is home to the world's best engineers, and everything in it has been learned by AI 2.0. This means that you're not just a super engineer, but have the collective intelligence of a global super engineer who can automatically write code for you. Now you don't have to learn to program, just ask a good question and it will automatically generate code for you.
So, how should education plan for children's future? As a father, I would like to give three sincere suggestions:
First of all, stop overemphasizing brushing questions and scores, because these things may have lost their meaning. Truly focus on your child's inner love and discover their personality and strengths. For example, let them read more and exercise more, so that children can release their nature and really find the things they love all their lives. The development of artificial intelligence will liberate us humans and free us from heavy and repetitive work to be able to do more creative and rewarding things. As a big country in education, we have adjusted very quickly. We have shifted from examination-oriented education in the past to quality education, and now we have a new policy that emphasizes cultivating morality and cultivating people.
Second, immediately expose children to and use AI in a variety of ways. The future society will be divided into two types of people: people who know how to use artificial intelligence and people who do not understand artificial intelligence at all. You certainly don't want your child to be the latter. As AI 2.0 rapidly enters our lives, new jobs will emerge. So you have to prepare in advance and also help your child prepare.
Finally, if you can only develop one ability for your child, my recommendation is to develop their ability to inquire. This coincides with the development direction of many excellent international schools. Just as humans can never invent fire, only discover it, all the great mathematical truths are contained in the DNA of the universe, waiting to be discovered.
Speaking of our company, we have started hiring "prompt engineers" with a salary of more than 300,000.
Finally, I would like to remind parents: the emergence of the Internet has broken the monopoly of resources, and the emergence of the mobile Internet has completely broken the monopoly of information. Now, the emergence of artificial intelligence 2.0 has completely broken the monopoly of academic qualifications and knowledge.
My graduate degree may not be of much use anymore, because AI has helped us learn all the great things. As long as we have the ability to inquire, we can use this knowledge.
