Reminder: you don't have to engage with AI as an instructor. You can talk about AI--even build AI literacy, if you want to call it that--and still not engage directly with a brutal, unethical, ecologically disastrous bundle of technologies. Regardless of institutional pressure, you can refuse.

These faux AI papers are so cooked. All of those responsible should be immediately sacked and banished from academics. They have no place in a serious scientific environment and are actively harmful to patients.

If a game is made with Generative AI I don't buy it. Simple as that.

Seen multiple complaints that Matilda, Princess of Cannock, is a bad spellcaster and weak fighter.
Are they playing the same game? She gets great spells (e.g., Kacrack) and abilities (e.g., Thin Air and Wizardly Waft).
Some of her stats are a little low but give her a few seeds and she shines.

Aside from the obvious ways that OpenAI, ChatGPT and other LLMs have stolen from artists and creatives, I wonder… in what ways (and to what extent) have they stolen from you personally?
I’m writing an essay on the subject and curious to hear people’s thoughts and reactions to the question.

Yesterday Canada received the "fossil of the day" award for countries doing the most to achieve the least. First time since Harper was PM.
In recent years Canada built up influence, but under Carney is seen as a country that chooses irrelevancy in negotiations as it pursues a fossil fuel agenda.

"AI business model is steal first, ask permission later, and Google's CEO is clinging to the notion of opt-outs as justifying it: 'We do give people those rights'"
🤣
Opt-outs don't work.
They are not easy, broad, or functional as most "opt-out" material is added anyway from secondary sources.
