Don’t let billionaires convince you that creepy, problematic technologies aren’t creepy & problematic. Because once they can convince enough people of that, well… then we’ve lost. But we (the 99%) haven’t lost til then. Technology is not destiny & they KNOW it. They’re terrified we might know too.

Curiosity needs friction. Learning needs surprise. Wisdom needs mistakes. Models don’t offer that. They offer something faster, smoother, and emptier.

This is another reason why the attempt to mass universalize LLMs in higher ed, irrespective of necessity, need or context, bothers me. We are teaching students that they do not have to reckon with, or disclose or think of, how exactly they came to write and create things.
And isn't that just wrong?

"I asked Wendy if she recognized the irony in using AI to write not just a paper on critical pedagogy but one that argues learning is what 'makes us truly human.' She wasn’t sure what to make of the question. 'I use AI a lot. Like, every day,' she said."

My head hurts.

“Massive #s of students are going to emerge... who are essentially illiterate. Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate + having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”

This isn't the only reason AI is bad, but it's why it is bad for students.
