If a system has become so degraded that there’s only one remaining semi-useful function left, it doesn’t follow that we should replace the system with one that only does that thing—the functions the system is failing to perform are the ones in need of replacement.

So you got they college learning and they didn’t. We were lucky that first year University classes were avaialble at highschool via a special accreditation. So Algebra, Calculus, Functions and Relations, English, and Physics courses were free. At college I learned descriptive geometry, database design and programming, filesystem management, metallurgy, welding, moldflow analysis, etc. They all helped formulate / solidify ideas and methods of working through problems.

Yes, it is. Just because dumbasses spend the money to not learn anything and leave school under qualified doesn’t mean that the school wasnt intended to educate them. Yes, classes could change how they do things to mitigate LLM usage and structure classes in a way to weed out these people, but that’s a different thing. College is about educating, and your example is just of people failing to allow to be educated. Learning strategy of those game will definitely help build a person’s analytical thinking skills, but it won’t teach them the specifics of a topic they need to be successful. It could be a good elective course, but learning chess won’t teach a person about history, algebra, business, or computer architecture. Or doctors… How do you figure learning the strategies of a game of Go will make someone understand human anatomy and how to perform arthroscopic surgery? Will it maybe help them get better at learning which they can use to gain that knowledge? Maybe to some degree, but where do they learn that information from then? College.

Probably all first year students. I guarantee you won’t know shit for anything past the first year.
