The majority of young people use AI, and they try to be polite when interacting with chatbots like ChatGPT, but some might have too much of an attachment to it, according to a new study.
I tried to explain a directory tree to one of them (a supposedly technical resource) for twenty minutes and failed. They’re idiots. They were ruined by baby tech like iPhones, iPads, and now AI.
They were designing functionality that contained directory trees and didn’t understand directory trees. How is it my responsibility that this person is not qualified to do their own job?
If they designed a directory tree without knowing what a directory tree is, it sounds like they know what a directory tree is, they just don’t know the word, and you can’t explain the word properly.
They didn’t “design a directory tree” either. They were designing screens for a thing that sits on top of a directory tree, and they didn’t understand the underlying concept.
It was likely because they’re used to the abstraction that iPhones and iPads provide, where the underlying directory structures are largely hidden from users.
I’m not a teacher. I thought I was in a design meeting not teaching remedial computers to someone who is supposed to be producing designs.
Just going off of my life experience, I notice that people pretend up a set of credentials, have large gaps in knowledge, and won’t admit they don’t know things.
No, I was in a meeting with a supposedly technical person.
I’ve been in the industry for a while, and I’ve even mentored people. These gaps in basic computer knowledge are new and they’re also not my problem. I was not this person’s mentor or supposed to be teaching them anything.
They could’ve been exceptionally inept, and even if they were, I’m still going to stick with my initial conclusion that you’re bad at teaching.
It’s okay, most people are and you don’t have to be ashamed of it. Everyone won’t be on your side when you say it’s someone else’s fault that they couldn’t learn from you effectively.

Anyone can understand a directory tree. Not everyone is smart enough to explain it.

I’m assuming part of it is because you’re a bad teacher as well.
Just going off of my life experience, I notice the vast majority of people are bad at teaching and then blame the pupil.

Yeah, but you were still in a teaching position.
You probably did a bad job because you’re not skilled in teaching. That’s what I meant by saying you’re a bad teacher.
I could’ve said you’re “bad at teaching” and that may have made things clearer for you, my mistake.

If I knew I was teaching remedial computers that day, I would’ve come with a lesson plan.
I’m going to stick with my initial conclusion that you love to blame the “teacher” even when they aren’t in any way a teacher.
