If we’re going to lose jobs to AI, let the CFP Committee lead the way

The #cfp trolls have tried so hard to discredit #Texas on social media to try to keep them out of the playoffs, because they know that they are favored to win against most teams in the bracket. You can tell it’s the bot farm/trolls because they are all so consistently on-message across platforms.

#Texas should switch to the #ACC since the only thing that matters to cfp is winning conference championships. This year’s #cfp is a joke. A 5-loss team is suddenly part of the conversation after weeks of insisting that Texas’s one-score loss in a voluntary game to #1 team in the country is fatal.

The chaos in today’s college conference championship games demonstrated just how wrong the #CFP committee’s rankings have been all along. Why decide the bracket before the championship games were even played?

If losses matter so much for the #Texas college football playoff chances, why doesn’t it equally matter that both #OU and #Vanderbilt lost to Texas? You can’t say losses are the most important thing and then disregard head-to-head results. #cfp #longhorns

If one Afghan nationalist shooter means all Afghan nationalists are evil, wait until I tell you about white male shooters.

Part of the issue with this MD-DNP turf war is that physicians fundamentally misunderstand nursing practice, and they have been trained to think that nursing is just a subset of medical practice. It’s not. It’s governed by its own ethical code and standards of practice.

The move to de-professionalize nursing sits uneasily alongside industry efforts to automate it. Changing the category doesn’t change the complexity and relational nature of nursing practice, but it does make it easier to flood the market with task-based “#AI Nurse” technology.

If #DNP ‘title confusion’ were actually dangerous, we’d see data. We don’t. The only thing injured so far is professional ego.

If #DNPs deliver strong results and the public reads that success as medical authority, the main beneficiary is medicine. Confusion becomes free reputation management for MDs and they get to appropriate the public’s trust in nurses, who are consistently rated more ethical and trustworthy than #MDs.

Imagine having an MD and still buying ad space to dunk on doctorally prepared nurses. If your credentials were that secure, you wouldn’t need an NPR PSA to reassure yourself. Touch some grass. #DNP #MD

One of the most successful rebranding campaigns of our time is convincing us that pleather is a luxury item and an environmentally responsible, healthy choice.
