Meine Schwester (12) hatte einen Auftrag für ein Sozialkundestudium, bei dem sie eine Region aus Ihrem Land entfernen musste (es ist eine internationale Schule). Meine Schwester hat sich trotzdem für Spitzbergen entschieden, weil Chat GTP ihr gesagt hat, dass es nur eine zufällige Insel ist. Wie auch immer, ich habe etwa 30 Minuten lang über die katastrophalen geopolitischen Auswirkungen davon gelacht 😭.

That’s a pretty serious task to give to a 12 year old to be fair. I don’t expect her to know the strategic value of Norway’s offshore territories. Even to most Norwegians it’s just some random island-chain.
But also Chat GPT should not ever be used for homework.
My guess is that she wasn’t the only one to casually choose the (on-the-surface) easiest option. This sounds like a conversation-provoking assignment of the teacher followed it up with discussion.
What kind of a task is this?
Why would they ask a child to remove a region? This is against the first article of the constitution!
Was Bergen the correct answer?
Honestly if we gave Aust Agder independence it would probably be good for them. Enclave with good maritime connections, it could be a second Sweden.
What a weird assignment to five a child.
Horrible brainwashing from the school.
It’s a desensitising exercise and the equivalent of giving the trolley problem to a kid, preparing them for a future in which governments state that X population is „not necessary“ and „it won’t have much of an impact on the rest of the country/world“ if we just get rid of them.
We’ve been here before, haven’t we?
The „you *have* to decide“ instruction is a philosophical trap and fallacy that primes the child for deciding within a predetermined binary (or limited gamut of choices), the same way you can vote for red party, blue party, or green party, but you can never choose to be a self-governing individual.
When given the trolley problem, the only correct answer is to reject the false moral burden that somebody is attempting to force upon you and not partake in the nonsense „choice“ of having to murder somebody or having to murder somebody else.
Authority without responsibility is dictatorship. Nobody except a psychopath wants that. Responsibility without authority is slavery. If you are given a responsibility without the authority to make a free decision, somebody is attempting to enslave you. Reject it outright.
„No, I’m not deleting anything from anywhere, and I resent your attempt at putting the moral burden of being responsible for the destruction of potentially thousands of lives on my shoulders.“
Most people will not understand what I’ve said here because of precisely this sort of brainwashing exercise throughout our lives. It begins at school and never stops.
We are not beholden to another human being’s false dichotomies and logic traps.
„No“ is a complete sentence.
Edit: If I really wanted to drive this point home to the teacher, I would ask them where they live and state that I’m deleting only that region, specifically.
It’s suddenly not such a casual exercise is it?
We have Bouvet Island. That’s always the answer.
12yr olds are using ChatGPT for their homework? Oh god we’re cooked…
Hm, not that teens would know, but wondering what implications would removing Bouvet Island have, besides fulfilling the assignment.
„..get rid of a region of your home country“? ..wow. Future diplomats graduate from that school for sure.
