Framing GenAI as a battle between teachers and students is a red herring. Students and educators are on the same side. The real opposition are the data extraction firms and brokerages and their allies among the managerial class.

A disrespect for me as an educator means that a basic piece of sociality and trust has been broken and so I don’t owe anyone generous feedback. But I don’t need to be punitive either. That’s what those who are selling these products want. They want to exhaust us into resignation.

Librarians *should* be exercising more judgement and objective expertise, looking at the whole picture, thinking about long term & bibliodiversity. Libraries do not receive budget to "buy content" they receive budget to "disseminate knowledge".
