“Ah good, you’re awake. Please don’t bother trying to move. Now, I just have a couple of questions for you. If you answer truthfully, this can all be over quickly, but if I think you’re lying, I will introduce you to my friend Klaus over there, and trust me, you don’t want that.”

🧵Teaching Students NOT to use AI
So...I've tried to explain to my students why they aren't allowed to use genAI in MY class (even though the university seems to be encouraging them to)
I've written this document to try to explain WHY it's a bad idea rather than just forbidden fruit.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.

PULP FICTION was released 31 years ago this week. A cultural phenomenon on its release, and the movie that catapulted the career of writer-director Quentin Tarantino, the tale of how it came to be is the Big Kahuna Burger of making-of stories….

So, @jamiedupree.bsky.social is one of the most down-the-middle Hill reporters there is. If he’s warning about what Mike Johnson’s refusal to seat Rep-elect Grijalva portends for our democracy, it’s worth taking very seriously.

Here is another idea, uncap the House. The limit (434) we now have was set in 1929 when we had half the population.
A larger Congress would mean a more democratic congress and less prone to gerrymandering. Populated states would be better representation.

JON KARL: What do you make of Pam Bondi saying she's gonna go after hate speech? A lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech
TRUMP: We'll probably go after people like you because you treat me so unfairly. You have a lot of hate in your hate. Maybe they'll have to go after you.

I know I know it's a well worn point but still. Plenty of people who would self-describe as Christians, for whom that is a very important identity, watch Fox News. I genuinely can think of very few messages as laser-targeted to be anti-Christian as "kill the homeless". Designed in a lab by Satan.
In a shocking on-air moment, a “Fox and Friends” co-host said homeless people suffering from mental health issues who refuse help should be killed
'Just Kill 'Em': Fox Host Makes Shocking Comment On Homeless People
"Fox and Friends" co-host Brian Kilmeade made a jaw-dropping remark while discussing homelessness and mental health.

The endgame of AI slop is not the mass virality that we have seen to date. It's hyperspecific, ridiculously niche content about things that didn't happen but which tick the boxes of your "interests" as determined by a surveillance algorithm, and everyone living in their own little worlds of bullshit
