Ted Chiang:
"The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write [...]. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning."

What about Schorske’s Fin de Siècle Vienna? You get to talk about psychoanalysis, politics, art, architecture, urban planning, nationalism, antisemitism. I’ve taught it in upper-level courses. Not sure for all first years but having a whole semester would be really cool.
