Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed

This isn’t your personal call-out post.

No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited

Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts

Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:

No spam or scams
No porn or sexually explicit content
No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged

If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

I TOTALLY would have. I'm so glad that I didn't have the option - I wouldn't have understood or cared about the problem here. But there's no putting the genie back in the bottle now... How do we stop the mass stupification these tools will cause?

Well, if I had the power to do anything about it...

Probably smaller class sizes and better paid teachers. A teacher with ten students can pay more attention than one with thirty. And that means they can intervene more and better if a kid is trying to cheat, or doesn't understand, or isn't engaging

I love this solution. You're 100% right. I'm afraid though that it's going to take a pretty serious amount of degradation and WAY too much time before anyone is willing to react appropriately. We're already seeing this young generation not capable of reading with their attention span ruined by social media - Gen AI is the next major problem to contend with and we're not even dealing with the first yet.
