The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they're using the AI tool again more.

Homework is a tool for repetition and drudgery. Kids are in school all day. They shouldn’t need homework.

Repetition is how people learn to remember things and improve their skills. I fail to see how that's bad.

People learn through spaced, interleaved, varied, low stakes practice. Mass practice after a long day of work isn't helpful

You just wrote bad homework is bad because it's bad. That is not an argument against HW.
