It’s widely known (and, I think, pretty uncontroversial) that learning requires effort — specifically, if you don’t have to work at getting the knowledge, it won’t stick.
Even if an LLM could be trusted to give you correct information 100% of the time, it would be an inferior method of learning it.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

Pedantic me would say “how the continents moved”, not “that the continents moved”. Continents moving had been proposed in early 1900’s with supporting evidence, it’s just that those ideas couldn’t provide a mechanism for movement and thus weren’t widely accepted.
![Comic. [two connected spacecraft hovering in space above the Earth] Houston, the view is superb. We can see the continents spread out below us, right where they’ve been since the Earth formed.

There are f’ing TV ADS for the SCORE Act?!?
Don’t buy their bullshit. Every single org invested in and working toward equity for and investment in women’s college sports are working to REJECT the SCORE Act.

I really and truly need people to understand that a chatbot does not and cannot know anything. Like, I need them to understand that in their bones. It is very good at looking like it knows something, but it does not and cannot know anything.

This is Pepperoni who hangs out in the lobby of WTIP radio in Grand Marais.
I was there to raise $ and awareness of the plight of small public stations after federal funding vanished.

@jocksinjills.bsky.social could you give this story and fundraiser a shout-out on the pod? I love the post-game live coverage y'all have been doing!
Lastly, a bit of a call to action. A historic old barn up in Eagle River, WI does not have an appropriate set up for their girls programs. So some of the players moms banded together to make it happen.
They're still fundraising, if you're able to help
