What you're describing is media literacy. We teach kids to dissect literature, to unpack images, and to investigate claims. We taught the "architecture of the internet" and how having a better understanding of the back-end could help us getting better results on the front end. All AI use in schools needs to be paired with AI literacy - and that goes WAY beyond "prompt engineering." Thanks for a great post.
I used copilot to research the Supreme Court, and it listed several sources and went very deep into suggesting further research.
As AI continues to shift and shape the educational landscape, I have learned that not everyone is equipped to learn from a computer all day. I think now that schools are banning cell phones in the classroom, there is a shift to re shape what the technology has done to the brain for the past 10-15 years. At least, I hope, change is coming.

ChatGPT actually shows me sources lately.
Your criticism of it seems to be that it is more efficient and effective than search.
I wonder if teachers shouldn't start worrying about being automated out of jobs like coders.
