Yes.
👇 Students will be using AI (heavily) whether you like it or not. The challenge for us as educators is to incorporate AI responsibly into our classroom to facilitate learning. We can have a debate on what method is best, but the response "AI is bad, don't use it" doesn't engage with reality.
Yeah, the big issue I’m running into is that students will just go to mainstream LLMs to get explanations rather than find other resources or ask *me* questions - and the LLMs are trained on 2010s LinkedIn/Medium data science slop so they end up with the wrong understanding.

Assume that the nodes of a social network can choose between two alternative technologies: B and X.
A node using B receives a benefit with respect to X, but there is a benefit to using the same tech as the majority of your neighbors.
Assume everyone uses X at time t=0. Will they switch to B?

Interesting pieace by @chrisgiles.bsky.social on the inflationary effetcs of tariffs and taxes

Tariffs and taxes are not very inflationary
Households will pay, but probably not through much higher prices

Hi #EconSky,

Not sure if the Starter Pack party's over, but I've made an Econ Starter Pack of Starter Packs! 😄
It's a work in progress, so I may have missed some. Let me know if there's anything to add—DMs are open!
Thanks for support @economista.bsky.social!
