There is a field experiment showing this exact effect. Introducing GPT tutors increases performance by *a lot*--students seem to be picking up the material much faster--but when GPT is removed those who had access perform *much worse* compared to those w/o access. 1/4

We are doubtful that our film investigating attacks on hospitals & medics in Gaza, produced with BBC News (UK) over 14 months, cleared multiple times at all levels, containing graphic footage of attacks & searing testimony of survivors of those attacks, will be released by BBC News (UK)

basement films BBC News (UK) The BBC News (World) and BBC is so exceptionally cowardly. Every day I listen to the Global News Podcast & everyday the BBC carries IDF statements which go completely unchallenged. War crimes are 'alleged' but there's no rebuttal for clearly false IDF statements.
