Fascinating interview with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on @cnbc.com this morning: He said that US manufacturers can use robots to offset the low wages paid in other countries, enabling the return of more production to the US, and Americans can get jobs building and maintaining the robots.
Hi, it’s me, your neighborhood robotics business guy, to inform you that if robots were actually ready to automate a process at scale, they would likely already be deployed

Once the bubble bursts, we will finally have a "conversation" about the meaning and purpose of technology, for the wicked have imposed such advancements upon us. We'll just wait for the glorious collapse of the global economy, and then our ideology will rise from the ashes.

Or, on the flip side: You think it’s okay to use an LLM to prototype some simple software? Have you considered that as an English professor, I find my students are lazier than ever?

I’m actually not worried about this because all of this happened during the Bush admin and it took less than 10 seconds of waterboarding to change this shock jock’s mind

It would unironically be a good idea to rebrand “The Humanities” as “Metacognition Studies” or something similar
This is exactly what I’m talking about when I’m talking about bad tech criticism. I think AI in education is a fucking disaster, and it is bad on basically every level for educational outcomes. I also think that a lot of critique of AI in pedagogy is basically worthless.

My unpopular on here hot take is that if the US actually did elect a Democratic admin next time then there would be a *lot* of immediate snap-back to pre-Trump norms in the US-global dynamic despite everyone insisting that definitely wouldn’t happen again. Not 100% but closer to 90%

i have seen people serve absolute CVNT in a work uniform, because of how they carry themselves and the little touches of themselves in the accessories they can wear or the way they have their hair styled, sure, money 'can' make a difference but its not at all just about that

Honestly I respect this. Someone on the team realized that frozen pizza crusts are mostly bad and figured out how to substitute in a carb base that freezes far better.

The more I think about this story, the more I think that teachers and staffers who encounter an essay like this need to act with zero tolerance.
No “see me after class.” Don’t even issue a grade. Just go right to disciplinary proceedings against the student.
