This, FWIW, is my current teaching policy on AI, always subject to revision. It is, I recognize, easier applied to creative writing, which draws students who *want* to take the course rather than have to.

I think the point is by doing a single take over the course of a semester you're deconstructing the immediacy of the reactive idea and instead dwelling on it, building on it as new information surfaces, sorting through the information that is good or bad. That's learning learning via take, imo.

Yeah, same. I think thats the behavior that needs to literally be trained in the age of AI, the reason I had all those reams of notes and books was I was working out my own take by absorbing the takes of others, that behavior is fundamentally the same still and can be part of HW, AI might even help?

Then grade based on the evolution of thought from the start of the class to the end of it, you'll be able to tell who absorbed the material you put in front of them and who just clocked the key guideposts but didn't develop their own reasoned take.

Gotta work with the students throughout the semester to develop the take they'll ultimately be writing about hot, I think? Like write an essay the first day and last day of class on the same exact subject, see how the take evolves with research, insight, primary sources, and a few months to stew.

Now Josh, let's not overlook his creation of extrajudicial kidnapping squads who deport people without due process to countries not famous for their human rights records. Or when he called Putin a genius for invading Ukraine. Or when he suggested Liz Cheney be shot at. Or called Africa a shithole co
