Reasons academics should contest universities’ AI campaigns: a manifesto
- chatbots are being trained to replace your teaching
- you are wasting time grading chatbot papers

Lately, I've been reading Piketty's 2013 'Capital in the Twenty-First Century'. In hindsight, it's impressive how much Piketty got right about what could happen if nothing changed re inequality. One argument was that we would be returning to a world dominated by inherited wealth (like before 1914).

🇵🇹I was delighted to go back to Lisbon to engage with investigators, analysts & helpline professionals who work on child abuse cases & support victims. But are THEY supported enough on the impact their work has on them?

Hi! I'm new here.
I'll talk about my work at the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children (ICMEC), an international NGO working so that every child can grow up safe from exploitation, sexual abuse, or risk of going missing.

Looking forward to connecting 👋

The most surreal and maddening feature of the campaign was that everyone agreed that high prices were the main issue but the guy explicitly, consistently running on a platform of raising everyone’s prices won voters most concerned about high prices.

We hammered this time and time again and yet.

Academic writing advice: Eliminate the word ‘explore’ from your vocabulary (unless you are literally an explorer). Yes explore, of course explore, explore all you like, but present your paper as a guide to what you found.

Claims vs. Actions

“The behavior of these companies and the people who run them is often hypocritical, greedy, and status-obsessed. But underlying these venalities is something more dangerous, a clear and coherent ideology that is seldom called out for what it is: authoritarian technocracy.”

Silicon Valley has its own ascendant political ideology. It’s past time we call it what it is.
