That's true, but the schools are left leaning anyway. Why pay them to
propagate what AI bots can propagate for free?

ChatGPT's public model (GPT-5) is better than a Google search if you have a
general question about something, but for serious tasks like "Evaluate my 400
page node.js project and help me split it into modules," GPT-5 couldn't handle
that. It had me replacing outdated statements with other outdated statements
only to tell me later "These statements are outdated." (waste of time)

But Claude's Sonnet 4.5 showed me the newest JS techniques, explained
the differences, helped me implement them, and I haven't had any issues with
my project.

I haven't used it for any actual programming (C++, etc) yet but I bet that it
will kick ass at that too. Surely it could teach kids better or even run a
school better than George's unerlings.
