It's true that you can use LLMs as a learning resource and to unblock you. But students just aren't. They are using them as a way to avoid thinking, avoid research, and just spit out an answer they can paste in to their homework.

They should at least require handwritten work, the kids will still be AI-stupid but will at least be able to write.

You remember better when you write, too.

I assume "AI workflows" means knowing how to split up a task to create a chain of agents that can complete a specific task reliably.

A bit like software development.

The problem is that the task you've defined "split up a task to create a chain of agents" has changed dramatically in just the last six months, nevermind the last two years.

You're wasting effort and teaching an obsolete technology if you try to make primary/secondary education too topical. Students can learn how to decompose a task and how to think critically without ever touching a Large Language Model.
