Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.
@roxanegay.bsky.social maybe you’re right.

Here is your SUDDEN REMINDER that if your library allows you a certain amount of purchase requests each month, you need to use them now before they go away forever!!

Of all the awful bullshit that's come from AI, the talking point that copyright is the 'tool of the oppressor' makes me slap my forehead so hard my eyeballs shoot out of my hoop.

Copyright means YOU own your creations! Companies have to pay us to use them!! That's how we make money!!!
