We’ve been needing to rework education for years now anyway. At least this will force the teachers to change & adapt, whether they like it or not.

Teachers are generally quite adaptable. We have asjustes for AI in our classrooms. We have adjuated to not teaching up to standards because we would be fined by our states for pushing some imaginary agenda. We have changed our entire curriculum the week before classes start because the County curriculum specialist had a bright idea.
The reality is that we have to navigate arbitrary law, we have to not do what's best for our classroom and teaching style because someone who hardly spent any time in a classroom thinks they know better. We have to do all this while being blamed for the behavior of students when their parents block the school phone numbers.

I’m not saying there aren’t great teachers, but I have family in education and know a lot of teachers, and I would not describe most of them as adaptable.

The key concern with reforming social programs like public education is that they are ongoing concerns with impacts that extend decades into the future. "Creative destruction" in public education is liable to cause far more harm than good if the transition is not handled with knowledge and care.

I think doing nothing, while this emerging tech obliterates the functioning of existing methods, is much more dangerous.

My point is that doing "something" haphazardly is just as dangerous, if not more so, than doing nothing.
