Learned loads from @atkinedu.bsky.social this afternoon on the uses and dangers of AI in teaching physics, including this statistic about how much energy a ChatGPT query takes (~10x more than a Google search). Many thanks Neil!

I loved our 1st session bringing maths & science leads together at Kent&Medway @ncetm.bsky.social hub:
1. Ready to welcome our participants
2. Skittles - as an exponential decay analogue
3. Takeaways: 3 things I learned, 2 things I’ll do differently, 1 question I have
Thanks to co-leader Andrea.
