I presume you did the same search yourself, but from Wikipedia:

« "To descend into the cave of Trophonios" became a proverbial way of saying "to suffer a great fright" »

No clue what that labeler does, but I'm on it as well.

Imagine studying a technology whose presence in the classroom is so detrimental to the development of writing and research skills (including even the will to know the sources behind claims!) that mitigating its effects becomes a central goal of course design, and concluding with tips on adopting it.

On a clairement pas le même feed... Je n'ai rien vu passer à propos de cet "événement" à part un article qui déplore que les médias deviennent presques tous des organes de pub pour Amazon durant cette période. 🤷‍♂️

The biggest lie the generative AI industry ever told is that it was a threat to our livelihood and our lives.

This disguised other, and arguably more sinister threats, and as a result, we're oblivious to the risk that this technology actually poses.

My latest newsletter is about how the generative AI industry made us fear the wrong things.

AGI won't kill us all, and AI won't take our jobs. But it'll still harm us.

Generative AI a paper tiger, with a real tiger behind it.
