Notice of construction along Bloor Street West between Clissold and Royal York. Taken from Reddit user T-DogSwizle. The start of a colossal waste of $48M that will not address traffic congestion and will put people's lives at risk.

ICYMI: The splendid cover for @igor48.bsky.social's "Come See the Truth: The Tourism Strategy of Tito's Yugoslavia" just dropped! Find more about this latest addition in the Histories and Cultures of Tourism series at the @cornellupress.bsky.social book page: cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/9781501...
A book cover depicting a couple walking in front of a scenic lake and mountains under signs that say Come See the Truth. At bottom is the text: "The Tourism Strategy of Tito's Yugoslavia" and author name, Igor Tchoukarine.

I remain astounded at the failure of universities, as supposed centres for critical enquiry, to challenge the ideological capture of AI. The only AI policy that is ethical, fair and defensible for students is an outright ban on its use.

A little self-critical humour.
Tito dressed as a doctor, advising a woman patient with "Party" written on her dress in Serbian cyrillic script. The caption says: Dr. Tito prescribers for his patient ("the Party"): "With the shape you're in, you have to become more active - start moving around!"

PSA: you know what scholars love? Talking about their books! You know what you can do? Invite them to your class to do so. It’s great! You absolutely do not have to use AI or tell students to use AI to understand their books. You can get the actual real life person to help with that! For free!

Merz finds a way to declare all Jewish Germans "foreigners" in the midst of trying to denounce left-wing antisemitism. Clearly a political talent the CDU cannot live without as it faces repeated electoral disaster.

The programme I run - the MSc in Contemporary History - will be axed, amongst so many others. We've also been told our undergrad courses will need to have a minimum of 20 students over a 3 year period. The bonfire of the universities has truly come for Edinburgh.

I had students approach me just today saying they appreciate my firm and justified stance on this (as I have a 10-min argument about why I don't want it in our classroom, and why they shouldn't either). Fight it. Some students will back you, and they are rejecting it too. Don't just roll along.

Universities Sound Warnings About A.I. Even as They Embrace It
As A.I. upends education, university leaders have been all over the map about how to respond. It can be very confusing for students.

The way AI is going to “kill everyone” is just by manufacturing consent for ever worse outcomes & conditions, like many governments do. It is a governing technology after all. And like bureaucracy it launders responsibility so the people & institutions who deploy it aren’t accountable for the harms
