Math requires insight that a language model cannot posess

Amen to that! Good maths & science teachers have struggled for decades (if not centuries) so that students understand what they're doing and don't simply give answers based on some words or symbols they see in questions [there are also bad teachers who promote this instead]. Because on closer inspection such answers always collapse. And now comes chatGPT that does exactly that instead – and collapses in the same way – and gets glorified.

Amen to what you say on infographic content as well 😂
