Y'all when I tell you that this current paradigm of "AI" being shoved down our throats does real, persistent harm, and that said harm will fall first on the most marginalized and then on everyone else, this is the shit I mean. I mean god DAMN.
I have three hearings at three different courthouses today. At the second, someone was sobbing outside the courtroom. They'd asked ChatGPT what to say in Court. They believed what it told them.
They lost because it hallucinated, and they didn't know there were no do-overs.

Speaking from the cusp of the vaccination generation,
Please vaccinate your children!
My earliest memory is the terrible pain of coughing up my lungs and not getting air, while my mama cried and held me. Pertussis.
Having measles was torture. High fever, swollen itchy skin, thirst.
Vaccinate.

Oh look, measles vaccination rates have fallen in 100 of 204 countries, while coverage for at least one dose against diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, measles, polio or tuberculosis has declined in 21 of 36 high-income countries – including France, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US.

I'm begging folks to not compliment themselves too much on their "non-violent" marches & rallies.
Instead, try to understand that violence at protests is generally a result of law enforcement escalation.
Then, the galaxy brain move is to ask yourself "which protests do police tend to attack?"

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?"
Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.

A bunch of us school librarians have been begging for years to teach digital literacy skills to kids and been denied. We're yelling louder with AI and still being denied. So guess what happens?
Also what I learned from my students is that no one was telling them what AI was, how it worked, and what the problems associated with it were

One thing I saw repeatedly in last night's AI thread is that a lot of people--seemingly young people??--believe teachers and professors are tasked with making students *better people* and therefor if their students are using AI it's the professor's failure/thing to fix. This has no basis in reality.
the solution to the AI problem in schools is simply not “professors should be better” and it continues to be really shitty to blame them for what is obviously extraordinarily awful yet insanely addictive technology
