Endangered profession

When teachers assign homework to students today, they simply get it done through ChatGPT and Google. The only concerns for students are their attendance in class or missing assignment deadlines; beyond that, the teacher does not matter much.

With Google and ChatGPT available, students feel there is no need for teachers because the topics are already ‘ready to read’, and Google provides ready-made slides. As we move forward, most tasks will be done by technology, and 40 per cent of jobs are predicted to disappear, with teaching being one of the first professions to be affected.
