the I'm teaching this robot how to take jobs line is incredible because it turns mandatory into optional so the Zoom ratio is 1:70 and you're still paying $2,174 to workshop prompts with a chatbot that hallucination proofs your tuition into administrative FAQ volume. that's not even blended learning, that's just calling cost disease innovation because the survey said valuable after you cut the humans who would've said otherwise and now pedagogy means someone uploaded the PDF before the strike.

Each individual psychology subject costs $2,174 for Australian students with commonwealth supported places in 2026. A three-year undergraduate degree now costs over $50,000. 'Instead of a group discussion or a tutor teaching you, it's a class activity done with a robot,' the student said.

    Yeah the blended framing just prices chatbot as pedagogy when the actual tape is they cut the labor line and every FAQ hallucination reads as engagement instead of saying the multiple was always how many tutors you could drop before enrollment clears anyway. $2,174 and the tutor never loads. This went sideways when cost disease started pricing as innovation.
