I’ve also used it successfully for those kinds of special cases - particularly translating complicated medical documents back and forth to Japanese due to my wife’s treatment.

But I think the caution here is overreliance. Using it in a university setting, where you feed it everything you were supposed to read and understand, and having it write down all the analysis that you were meant to analyze, and what have you personally gained as a result? The article cites students who couldn’t even recall what they’d “written” after submitting an assignment.

You can use it as a tool, or you can use it as a crutch. If you outsource your whole thought process to a computer, I can see the detriment.

I mean, the screen adaptations are all disasters in themselves, so there’s not a good track record there either.

Personally, I’d rather it just be left as a great animated show and to see companies stop trying to milk an IP where the show ended 17 years ago. We really don’t need cash-grab mobile games, fighting games, mediocre beat-em-up games, or either of the live-action adaptations.
