Kids are impressionable though, and you should lead by example.

"Kids remember don't use AI, what, me? I can use AI because... because, well, we're not the same I'm the teacher"

I somewhat agree with you, but there's a difference between using AI responsibly as a quick tool by someone who got their M.A./M.S. the old fashioned way, and a student who doesn't know how to produce something on their own.

It's like putting a baby in an uber instead of teaching them to walk. And, if you work with these generations of kids you'd know that they are academic babies.

Specifically using AI to tell people not to use AI is dumbassery though. It's like showing a kid how to do a math problem with a calculator then asking them to do it by hand

Yeah, I hate it when teachers specifically use their own VOICES to ask students to be quiet.

Teachers often have silent hand signals to get kids to be quiet specifically because of this conflict.

All due respect but are you a child? There is absolutely no conflict in a teacher telling students to quiet down.

I’m once again reminded how many redditors are children lol. To me as someone who’s worked as TA before its so obvious why teachers can use AI to assist and students can’t. If teachers save time by using AI they can spend time answering questions and making lectures more interesting
