I have questions about what's going on in Utah. A month apart, headlines claiming to roll back device usage and also advance AI. The amazing work Matthew Winters has been doing is highlighted, and I'm glad to see some #AIOptimism. How will these two initiatives complement each other? #EduSky

Anthropic's new videos (just went live today) trolling OpenAI for their targeted ads announcement are spot on... and pointed, with words like betrayal, treachery, and violation. As I've been saying, trust is the new currency. #EduSky

Canva just released a student creator challenge for Black History Month. These ideas would work in any design platform, but of course the challenge submission part needs to be in Canva. #EduSky

We’ve moved from trading data and attention to demanding trust. AI-made images, shifting terms, and quiet rights grabs leave people feeling deceived—learning what they surrendered only after clicking “accept.” Trust is the new currency. Read my newest blog post on my website or on Substack. #EduSky

Have you seen the new Brisk Boost whiteboard activity? I made one for students to explore character traits for a literature class. I would love to try this with students as it encourages them to #ThinkinInk - a powerful pedagogy for sure. Em-dash my own. ;) #AIOptimism #EduSky
