For God's sake we all know postdocs aren't real, stop trying to scare PhD students with superstitious nonsense.

New reflections on attention, selfhood, and how social media use may erode prudence.

I’ve earned my PhD in Philosophy from Tulane University.
This dissertation was shaped not just by theory and text, but by the brilliant professors, colleagues, workshop groups, and late-night conversations that pushed me to think deeper and write better.
Onward!

Affiliated departments at UNC are hiring an assistant professor position for the study of AI. Happy to connect folks w/ questions. I would say that there is an emphasis on the “socio-technical”.

You know what's nice? Getting an email out of the blue from someone who just finished reading your book and wanted to let you know how much they enjoyed it, then they go point by point through all the things they liked. I mean, 5/5.

Fair! But plenty of useful things hallucinate: dreaming minds, creative writers, even poets. Hallucinations aren’t always a flaw; sometimes they’re raw material.

That goes to say awareness of users and their agency can be key. Instead of critiquing tech for its design, we can shift the conversation to how users engage. By acknowledging the role people play in shaping their own experiences with AI or dating apps, we can move toward a more ethical approach.
There’s often this implicit trust that tech, whether AI or dating apps, will guide us to better outcomes. That trust can be harmful if we dismiss these platforms are designed with their own goals in mind. When /we/ rely too heavily on tech for growth or well-being, we risk losing sight of the goal.
