AI Can Build a DFIR Course in Minutes. So What Are You Really Paying For?
Brief
Every training provider should ask themselves this question before someone else asks it for them.
“If AI can reconstruct a course outline in seconds, how does the value proposition rest solely on the curriculum?”
Upload almost any DFIR syllabus into any GenAI. Ask it to generate lectures, labs, exercises, quizzes, case studies, reading lists, and a study plan. Ask for beginner, intermediate, or advanced versions. In minutes, you’ll have something that looks like a legitimate course. Some of it will even be good enough to compete with many paid courses.
This is not a criticism of AI. It is genuinely impressive. It may turn out to be one of the most powerful educational tools we’ve ever had (if the output is validated!) But it does force an uncomfortable question: if a chatbot can reconstruct curriculum from publicly available material, what exactly is the student paying for?
