Universities use AI to teach PLC, HMI, SCADA, ROS2 and other courses; weak student foundations despite graduation raise concerns

A graduate reported that their alma mater is pushing the use of AI to complete the design, implementation, and debugging of courses including PLC, HMI, SCADA, embedded systems, IoT, and ROS2, and that students no longer read code. More than 60% of the students in that class do not understand arrays or Python, cannot write C++ at all, and cannot answer basic math questions such as integrating acceleration to obtain velocity, yet they will still graduate. The poster asked experienced practitioners how to guide these students in rebuilding their foundations.
