One approach to course design might be to watch the 3 Blue 1 Brown series on neural networks and figure out what the 25th percentile student would need to understand that

Of course, the Alt National Park Service is no stranger to using their massive online presence to speculate wildly and spread panic.
Christ.
AltNPS is blasting out misinformation to their millions of followers. We don't know the agent's name, and the real photos of him are being mixed in with obvious AI fakes. This is wildly, WILDLY irresponsible.

I wrote about how we must stand and fight against the threat of eugenics.
Fueled by white nationalism and scientific racism, these beliefs are factually wrong and ethically abhorrent.
This fight includes supporting efforts to diversify our workforce & science. To stop now would be a deep betrayal.

Eugenics is on the rise again: human geneticists must take a stand
Scientists must push back against the threat of rising white nationalism and the dangerous and pseudoscientific ideas of eugenics.
