I always enjoy your writing @benjedwards.com and especially appreciate your use of the correct term ("confabulation") to describe this specific AI misbehavior! Cheers!

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad.

I love to (aspirationally) check out books that I want to have read and then I fail to read them before the app automatically returns them for me.

I read some of them tho! 🥴

(I do love libraries and I enjoy visiting in person from time to time, too.)
It also makes it harder for them to ban books.

A long, worthwhile read! 👍

Two things I'll highlight:
- the forest metaphor wonderfully crystallizes how the "meritocracy" fell short
- while I am hopeful AI can broaden access to high quality educational resources and lifelong learning, we shouldn't expect it to replace great teachers!
How the Ivy League Broke America
The meritocracy isn’t working. We need something new.
