If you're looking for an excellent course that you can take on AI, I recommend @carlbergstrom.com's Bullshit Machines. I got a bunch of people to work through it with me in my department and it's worked for people with all levels of tech comfort and knowledge:
Modern-Day Oracles or Bullshit Machines: Introduction
A free online humanities course about how to learn and work and thrive in an AI world.

Identity.
Identity politics.
Is identity innate?
Is it developed?
Chosen?
Is it a group thing?
An individual thing?
What is it
A lot of the arguements about identity that we encounter are people in dispute because the word 'identity' is being used to mean different things. Is identity a core aspect of self, unchanging through time? Or is it an aspect of self that connects you to a group, that you can develop, discover? Is it something that comes from within a person, or is it something projected from the outside, to do with how people percieve you? And how does identity, in all it's different formats, relate to people with profound disabilities? If you fancy a kind of quick guide to identity to inform yourself within the landscape of identity politics then you might enjoy chapter three of my thesis, You do not have to read a whole thesis to nourish your curiousity. Chapter 3 of my thesis is an adventure through identity You can download it for free by clicking the link or going to: https://eprints.soton.ac.uk/ 497372/ + logos: ESRC SCDTP Uni of Southampton, watercolour of two people facing each other

I don't suppose anyone has a copy of Anne Meredith's unpublished thesis on 'Middle Class Women and Horticultural Education 1890-1939'? I've done a ton of googling and all I can find are people citing it & calling it unpublished but no copies... #PhDSky #PhDChat #GardeningHistory #WomensHistory

Being Autistic and ADHD means questioning norms and seeking alternative paths. This is key in researching performance art on social media.
