I'm tired of being treated like a crank because I want to uphold the integrity of the institution and of education more generally. I'm tired of my opinions, shaped by hours and hours of research, being dismissed because they don't align with what admin already decided they wanted

At my institution we all talk in circles around each other because the AI boosters and the AI critics aren't even speaking the same language and don't have the same worldviews. And none of the conversations matter because admin has already decided that the AI critics are cranks

I'm so tired of hearing that we need to "teach our students how to use AI" when the thing they most need to use it is a critical-thinking skill set that can only be acquired by NOT using it. I'm tired of hearing that it's inevitable. I'm tired.
