At what point of being an adult and/or academic do you unlock the 'can read an eBook without getting a massive headache and retain the information in that eBook' skill and how can I speed up the process of getting there.

A write-up of my talk from last weekend's Highland Archaeology Festival Conference. Featuring some new (and still developing) thoughts on Curetán's late seventh-century bishopric of Ross, and whether we can see a glimpse of it in Adomnán's Life of Columba. All thoughts and feedback welcome!
The early church in Urquhart, the Aird and Strathglass
This blog is more or less a transcript of a talk I gave last weekend at the Highland Archaeology Festival in Inverness.
It was a great conference and it was wonderful to meet so many people in person...

Academics are under unrelenting pressure to accept the narrative of the inevitability of #generativeAI & to embrace it in teaching & learning. We resist - because it is ecologically destructive, ethically corrupt, & because it undermines the thinking abilities that make us both human & intelligent.
Opinion: We are lecturers in Trinity College Dublin. It is our responsibility to resist AI

Even if all the known issues were magically resolved, we would still not want our students to use GenAI

Re-posting my upcoming lecture details - plus I am now reasonably confident that it will include a newly-identified early medieval source for the Moray Firthlands, which is quite exciting.
I'm giving an online lecture later this month on the eighth-century church in the Moray Firthlands - featuring brand new research on the 'shadowy' St Curetán (fl. 697), among other things. Booking link in the reply.
