Handing back student work that’s been written by ChatGPT with a 0 followed by the comment “This essay will never stand in authentic wonder before the Beauty of God’s creation.”
Pope Leo XIV told students not to use artificial intelligence for homework, saying that AI ‘won’t stand in authentic wonder before the beauty of God’s creation.’

if u, like me, find yourself in a city hostile to pleasantries, try delivering them as statements. "hey how are ya." gets way better results than waiting for acknowledgement after each component.

As a final project in a research class, yeah, you can do something like this. You gotta weigh the various costs, and allow for the fact that plenty of students will end by concluding the factual errors and ethical problems with AI are within tolerable ranges- and more infatuated w/ AI's smoothness.

i'm not the right person for this research, but i am desperate for someone to take seriously how the monetization of attention is playing out in platformized economies globally
I had a popular account with a valuable audience and my Twitter payout was $80 a month-ish, to the point where I disabled monetization instead of uploading my ID. Payouts are only material if you live in a developing country, so “guy in Nigeria posting right-wing Amerislop” has taken over the site.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Elon is feeding entire families in Bangladesh who are just pumping out AI slop to halfwits In Oklahoma. It’s actually really funny when you step back and take a look at things

Not to continually old man post, but i am astounded at the fact that the default count of old boston guys is two. They always have a buddy. I feel like in the South it's like one guy by himself or several men. But up here it's always two guys.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
