I can't *stand* the condescension of the people who think the only way to "embrace AI" is to buy into the bullshit narratives of the billionaires who are selling it. Tip: Ask early on, has your company ever enabled a genocide or made a product that encouraged self-harm? Maybe don't buddy up to them.
Here's the thing — I'm a technologist, and I'm not an anti-AI, or even necessarily an anti-LLM technologist. But your approach here *is not meeting the challenge*, and it's not centering education and learners. It's a credulous, facile approach that's taking the word of big-tech liars at face value.

Here's this week's Better Offline monologue, where I consider what would happen if I'm right about the AI bubble bursting - and the consequences of both three years of myth-peddling journalism and markets addicted to growth at all costs.
