Sehe ich auch so! Das war eine Anspielung darauf, dass Friedrich Merz ständig fragt: „Was ist Arbeit eigentlich noch für uns? Nur eine unangenehme Unterbrechung unserer Freizeit?“ (Ich vermute er fragt das, weil er wirklich nicht weiß was Arbeit ist.)

Das ist ja fast als würde man sagen, Arbeit wäre eine unangenehme Unterbrechung der Freizeit! 😂

Ich biete gerne allen Redaktionen ein Online-Theorie-Seminar an, wo wir klären was „konservativ“ „rechtsextrem“ „rechtspopulistisch“ und „faschistisch“ im Jahr 2025 bedeuten und wann man wie diese Begriffe korrekt einsetzt. Das ist ja nicht zum Aushalten. Es dient niemandem das synonym zu verwenden.

…….. yes sure let‘s replace the humanities in total with ChatGPT

Wow. The University of Chicago, a world-class institution whose humanities faculty in the past has included Homi Bhabha & Lauren Berlant & Ralph Ellison & Hannah freaking Arendt, is getting rid of basically every graduate department involving the acknowledgment that other cultures & languages exist.
Quote from a story on changes at the U of Chicago that notes they are "pausing" doctoral eduction in Classics, Comp Lit, Germanic studies, Middle Eastern Studies, Romance languages and literatures, and South Asian Studies.

Sounds like they‘ve used AI

A federal judge found that lawyers for Mike Lindell, the founder of MyPillow, had misquoted court cases, misrepresented principles of law and, “most egregiously,” cited “cases that do not exist.”
Colorado Judge Fines MyPillow Founder’s Lawyers for Error-Filled Court Filing
The judge said the lawyers had not explained how such errors could have been filed “absent the use of generative artificial intelligence or gross carelessness by counsel.”

"Hauptsache nur, die Vorstellung eines solchen " #RundumSorglos​-Pakets" erschöpft sich nicht allein in der Logik von „Spitzenbedingungen“ ausschließlich für die umworbenen "internationale Spitzenforscher". Indeed, wenn Bär nicht die gesamte #IchBinHanna​-Community & mehr gegen sich aufbringen will!

Heimatversprechen mit Fragezeichen

Forschungsministerin Dorothee Bär spricht von "garantierter Wissenschaftsfreiheit" und einem "Rundum-sorglos-Paket" für internationale Forschende – aber was genau meint sie damit?
