This is the giant Canary in the coal mine of what AI will do to education. Improperly adopted, it will destroy critical thinking and educational attainment.

For the oligarchs, this is a feature of AI, not a bug.

Meta brought AI to rural Colombia. Now students are failing exams
When Meta embedded AI bots in its apps, even students in the most remote corners of Colombia gained access. But rather than boosting learning, it’s getting in the way.

People think the purpose of school is to get a degree; they forgot the purpose is to learn something

Well we got that going for us 😃🤪
“Are you a perfect mother? I certainly hope not,” writes Mathilde Ross, a psychiatrist, on Mother’s Day. “Being flawed is actually part of a mother’s job. Maybe even the most important part.”
Opinion | On Mother’s Day, the Gift of Cutting Mothers Some Slack

“The miracle of grace is that we can give what we’ve never been given.” For me, ‘turning out fine’ wasn’t ever going to be good enough. I want to have and give more.
It’s hard to process the absence of something you never had, even as an adult. And for some of us, our brains were formed around neglect in our first years of life, so we have to quite literally rewire our brains to learn how to love and be loved. What’s miraculous is that it really can be done.

Why do we like vaccines and water systems so much?

It used to be 50/50 whether your kid lived to be an adult. With 4 kids, 94% chance they wouldn't all make it.

Fun times. Maybe let's not do that again.

We don't have magic cures for diseases like measles. We have vaccines.

All Americans need to read this book!
THE WARMTH OF OTHER SUNS by Isabel Wilkerson is easily one of the best books in all of American literature.
12. What is a book that once you finished, you just sat there in awe of what you just read?

Honestly still pissed off about a tweet from like 10 years ago where someone said that there was no point to reading The Great Gatsby because it was just old lit by a dead white guy

As if it’s not a book about the moral bankruptcy of America

literally Careless People!!!!

This article reporting on my favorite episode of Northern Exposure
Beneath your feet is a complex network of fungal trade routes carrying essential nutrients from the soil to the roots of plants.

Dr. @tobykiers.bsky.social joins us to talk about how these complex networks form.
Scientists Observe Fungi Creating Complex Supply Chains
