Did King Reccared convert the Goths, or did he take too much credit? At the Third Council of Toledo, King Reccared was hailed as the unifier of the Goths and Suevi. However, Saint Leander of Seville used his homily to subtly remind the monarch that true conversion comes only from Christ.

Hard to overstate what a *huge* win this is for OpenAI in its strategy to spread its malign, brain- and planet-destroying tentacles all through the education sector. Oxford’s global standing will create a permission structure for many other schools to do likewise. “If Oxford’s doing it, then…”

Screenshot of a post University of Oxford stating that from now on all students and staff at Oxford will have free access to ChatGPT. The post claims that ChatGPT edu is “built for education with enhanced privacy and insecurity.“
