If children are taught to read by AI there is no shot they don't teach them wrong and change language forever.

    Clearly language is already doomed judging by this post

        So you’re creating the doom you’re prophecising?

        Nicely played.

    Perhaps AI could be used to rewrite this post so that it makes sense.

    Do you really assume that language does not change if there is no AI involved in teaching? Try reading texts from a century – or even 50 years – ago.

    I am not an AI fan but your argument is just fearmongering.

    I mean, languages evolve over time anyway. If I transported you back 200 years, you would sound like an idiot to everyone around you.

      Thus making it more likely.

      Edit

    Well, look at USA alone and tell us how many accent they have. Globally there’s like two way to pronounce the word “Herb” and “Data” and “gif”(pronounced like giraffe) and many other word, people still fighting over it yet there’s no “correct” way to pronounce, both are legit. There’s also the whole thing with dialect. Language, pronunciation, and all those thing, its always start from reading it wrong(as in not intended way), then people are taught the same thing on that region, then it became an accent or dialect or what have you. Turning back the clock 200 years from now, i’m pretty sure they talk differently.

    This isn’t in support in AI replacing teacher though, as learning lips movement is very important in teaching pronunciation. People talk differently because their lips and tongue move differently, and AI can’t do that. They make sound with speaker, not manipulating how air leave the throat.

    The rich will have actual human teachers, but the poor will be trained by AI. The result will be language diverging into two Eloi/Morlock-style subpopulations.

    Though given that people acquire language from their peers, and invent what they need, Poorish will have a bland, almost mechanical formal register, and a lot of incomprehensible-to-outsiders slang about actual life stuff.

    tbh AI is a better explainer than a public school teacher, mainly because they don’t make enough money to live off

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.
