MILLER: The US is using its military to secure our interests unapologetically in our hemisphere. We're a superpower. It's absurd we'd allow a nation in our backyard to become a supplier of resources to our adversaries

That moment was possible because countless Georgians (and folks around the country) believed and chipped in when too many discounted us. We knocked doors, monitored polls, and chipped in what we could. We coordinated and trained thousands of volunteers. 2/

The other thing about normalizing gAI use in higher ed is that we are teaching our students that they cannot trust their own creativity, their own thoughts and brains, their own skills without having it reshaped/shellacked/transmogrified by LLMs. We’re setting them up for failure and dependence.

But as the Republican Party, and the fully Trumped Heritage Foundation, ever more openly embraces bigotry - and particularly antisemitism - there are some initial rumblings of discontent.

Does anyone else bristle at this framing? WSJ says blue books are “torturing” students with hand cramps, and “nobody likes them.”
Listen, students have been outsourcing everything to AI and cheating their way through college. Blue books should be celebrated as a return to authentic human learning.
