I really do believe that a way we meet the moment as higher ed educators is to ensure students have strong theoretical foundations and a good understanding of history. And they also must appreciate the role of the executive and SCOTUS in dismantling Federal legislation and the science behind it. 2/2

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.

AI is a massive boon to the fly-by-night vanity publishers and high-output KDP book content. Even big 5 publishing has embraced AI for covers for their republished fanfiction. It's more important than ever for real independent presses to stress the human-made, anti-algorithmic nature of our work.
This is the only sensible way forward. If people don't want to do the work, they should do something else. Thank you for holding the line against the slop.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

i just reviewed 50+ applications for an arts award and most of them were written by chatgpt. And then the other reviewers said they put them into Gemini to rank them. At a certain point, if everyone is giving their thinking entirely over to AI, why are we even bothering with any of this anymore?
