This week I gave a career talk for T-FUN, a network of teaching-focused academics (see t-fun.co.uk). Slightly weird to have got to the point I can do bit of a retrospective, but lovely to have the opportunity to write a love letter to everyone along the way and to the teaching track.

Making students feel they matter can dramatically improve lecture attendance. Here are ways to do it

This is the problem with AI-generated writing broadly. It skips the crucial step where you take the time to *think* about something.
Writing is thinking. Thinking is writing. If we efficiency our way out of that step, we're in big trouble.
Writing is thinking. Thinking is writing. If we efficiency our way out of that step, we're in big trouble.
My notes as I review a paper are my momentary impressions. Having an LLM slap them together into something that has the form of a peer review is useless. What matters is how I synthesize those momentary impressions into a holistic analysis of the paper, it's strengths and flaws.
