Yes. The technology isn't going to get worse, it's only going to improve from here on. It's the "you won't always have a calculator in your pocket" debate all over again, which surprisingly you do have in your pocket all the time. I'm not at all saying calculators made math education useless, not at all. It's still as important as ever, it's just that we have to adapt. Crunching big numbers in your head isn't that important anymore, you just have to know how it's done and how to use the available tools to get what you want.

Education will need to adapt again.
