@[email protected] the question that l asked you, that is what are the characteristics of a good teacher-cum-mentor, l asked the same to ChatGPT. And it came out like a hilarious dialogue between a man and a machine. I’m sharing the chain of conversation with you, just for your amusement 😄😄😄😄😄

@[email protected] So an authentic teacher must have the ability to say, " I don’t know, right ?" well you ought to understand that I belong to an entirely different ecosystem. I don’t deal with computers in my daily life, yet technology is something that I am using increasingly in my day to day life. Do you realise now why my questions are so weird ? Yet I must admit that I have learnt a lot about computers and Technology by chatting with AI, particularly with ChatGPT and Grok, also there is Duck AI, Gemini and Claude. I can sense when they give wrong informations, and that’s when I put up my doubts as posts on platforms like these. My questions get answered by by human beings who deal with technology in their day to day life.

I dream of starting on a journey. Of creating a Digital Curiosity Club for kids. Where kids can explore the cyber universe at there own pace. Here, their curiosity would become the curriculum. Their learning method would be creating something new, which they would present in front of the local college students who are studying IT. The feedback that they get would become their progress report. Later, as they grow in confidence, they would be taken to https://www.iitkgp.ac.in/, a premier institution in our country.

What do you think of my plan and my dream ?

@[email protected] you gave me a very nice perspective. I was actually looking for Communities that deals with open source topics, but your comment opened up a new horizon for my curiosity.

@[email protected] honestly l don’t know what kind of teacher figures you’ve come across, but with AI having invaded the market, the teaching profession would soon be wiped off the face of the planet. Only those people whose life’s mission is to prepare the younger generations, only they would be able to be in the role of a teacher.

That being said, what is it that you noticed in my behaviour that makes you doubt whether l’m a good teacher or not ?

@[email protected] why this remark ?

@[email protected]

@[email protected] okay, so kids can learn programming. But l want them to explore the concept even before they learn that word.

@[email protected] thank you very much for explaining it. Could you tell me which forums would be more suitable for my general questions ??

@[email protected]

@[email protected] appstores literally serve you everything on a plate 😄😄😄

Windows organise a grand buffet for you, but l wish to have the kitchen under my control 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

Does that make any sense to you ???

@[email protected] what satire ??🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

@[email protected]

@[email protected] why not ??🤔🤔🤔

@[email protected]

@[email protected] windows is the prevailing operating system, yes…

Now imagine a world where you have no access to anything that’s proprietary, how would you survive in that case ??

Proprietary products are always produced according to the demands of the market, but your needs need not fit into the general demands always 😄😄😄😄😄

@[email protected]

@[email protected] exactly… Whatever tools l require, l can access that from the terminal, right ??

@[email protected]

@[email protected] any store… I mean apps downloaded from any store…

@[email protected] the ones that you get from the appstores…

@[email protected] is this not the right forum ??

@[email protected] by apps l mean as we cannot do without apps on smart phones…

@[email protected] thank you very much for this link 😃😃😃
