Many critical AI resources are written for teachers, rather than students. I wrote this for undergrad students dealing with “AI literacy” in the humanities, hoping to raise more fundamental questions about what it means to write. People have added it to syllabi, so maybe you’ll find it useful, too.

Read this thread. I don't know what to say, other than we can't live like this anymore.
I‘m discontinuing my social media use for the foreseeable future and I want to explain why.
I woke up in the new year to discover that some guy on here had saved photos I took on New Year’s Eve and used Grok to remove my clothes. I know this because he showed me.

you don't need to add caveats agreeing that the head of state abducted is a bad guy before opposing abduction of a head of state by military force. If the rule was any head of government is fair game then the entire world would be a series of decapitation strikes and show trials in foreign courts.

I've lost count of the number of times just this week that I have accidentally clicked an "AI" button in a service or software, which means a bunch of services are counting me as a regular active "AI" user despite me being about as hardcore "no generative AI, nowhere" software guy as they come.

There's a thing to weave into African Speculative Fiction -- "When the AI bubble burst, it was from the detritus of an exploitative industry that Africa built their foundation in the coming age of technology. The PCs of a thousand failed AI startups abandoned in their centers spawned a revolution."
“The work was emotionally exhausting, with chat users confiding intimate details about their real-life relationships, as well as their own emotional trauma, falsely believing they were talking to an unfeeling AI chatbot.”
AI "Companion Bots" Actually Run by Exploited Kenyans, Worker Claims
A new testimony from a remote worker in Kenya details the grueling and exploitative work behind romantic AI chatbots.

Over ten years ago I pitched a piece about how all these glowing profiles were being done about 3d printing companies "disrupting" and "democratizing" prosthetics and how that was simply not true. I was told it was too boring/negative and nobody wanted it.

You would be surprised, if you hadn't worked in the field, just how dogshit a lot of these tech people are at actually doing tech stuff.
I think the toxic current correlation between “studied STEM” and “techbro sociopathy” isn’t really about the subject matter itself but is about how our culture has spent 25 years constantly blowing smoke up the asses of guys who are even passably competent at Computer or Quant
there is not any particularly strong evidence that study of the humanities make people good people. the elites of many brutal empires were extremely well-read!
