Thanks, I didn't think those existed. What a waste of effort to make a device like that.
Presumably, if the student had many questions like this, didn't know the process, and just used AI to recall the method, it could be fine. Or if the student just wanted to check their finished work. AI can be helpful with the right motivations.
My feeling is that AI like this is just going to heighten contradictions in a capitalist, competitive society. In a way, students are workers who do a lot of mind numbing prep work only for a fucking exam so maybe they won't be poor when they're older. If poverty was abolished and education wasn't a deciding factor in one's future ability to eat, we could just let students use these without stress. There would be no need to cheat. If one doesn't love maths, there's plenty of other valuable things to be good at.
