This is how much the govt gives a shit about queer people in this country. A week ago they announced their "10 point plan" for "better protection" instead of just listening to the community.

too much?
An introductory slide from my Research Methods module, explaining how LLMs ('AI') work. The slide narrative is:
"
1. Experts like us
2. Create knowledge together
3. And share it. Often for free
4. Super-rich tech companies take our creations. Often illegally
5. Mince them into 'AI' slop + CO2
6. And $ell them back to us

Cut out the tech companies.
Read and think for yourself.
Talk directly to the experts - us.
"

I'm hoping that students might actually engage with the module materials and the expert lecturers rather than, I don't know, sitting in the dark on their own in their room staring into the shiny abyss.

(the implication that tech bosses should be put into a meat grinder is entirely unintended. i just wish they'd fuck off.)

(some of the icons may be copyrighted - many apologies to the creators if so: I got them from a google search so who knows what they've stolen. hypocrite much..?)

Finally! 🤩 Our position piece: Against the Uncritical Adoption of 'AI' Technologies in Academia: doi.org/10.5281/zeno... We unpick the tech industry’s marketing, hype, & harm; and we argue for safeguarding higher education, critical thinking, expertise, academic freedom, & scientific integrity. 1/n
Abstract: Under the banner of progress, products have been uncritically adopted or
even imposed on users — in past centuries with tobacco and combustion engines, and in
the 21st with social media. For these collective blunders, we now regret our involvement or
apathy as scientists, and society struggles to put the genie back in the bottle. Currently, we
are similarly entangled with artificial intelligence (AI) technology. For example, software updates are rolled out seamlessly and non-consensually, Microsoft Office is bundled with chatbots, and we, our students, and our employers have had no say, as it is not
considered a valid position to reject AI technologies in our teaching and research. This
is why in June 2025, we co-authored an Open Letter calling on our employers to reverse
and rethink their stance on uncritically adopting AI technologies. In this position piece,
we expound on why universities must take their role seriously toa) counter the technology
industry’s marketing, hype, and harm; and to b) safeguard higher education, critical
thinking, expertise, academic freedom, and scientific integrity. We include pointers to
relevant work to further inform our colleagues.Figure 1. A cartoon set theoretic view on various terms (see Table 1) used when discussing the superset AI
(black outline, hatched background): LLMs are in orange; ANNs are in magenta; generative models are
in blue; and finally, chatbots are in green. Where these intersect, the colours reflect that, e.g. generative adversarial network (GAN) and Boltzmann machine (BM) models are in the purple subset because they are
both generative and ANNs. In the case of proprietary closed source models, e.g. OpenAI’s ChatGPT and
Apple’s Siri, we cannot verify their implementation and so academics can only make educated guesses (cf.
Dingemanse 2025). Undefined terms used above: BERT (Devlin et al. 2019); AlexNet (Krizhevsky et al.
2017); A.L.I.C.E. (Wallace 2009); ELIZA (Weizenbaum 1966); Jabberwacky (Twist 2003); linear discriminant analysis (LDA); quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA).Table 1. Below some of the typical terminological disarray is untangled. Importantly, none of these terms
are orthogonal nor do they exclusively pick out the types of products we may wish to critique or proscribe.Protecting the Ecosystem of Human Knowledge: Five Principles

Brand Manager getting ready for Pride Month
8 panel comic

Panel 1: Yellow guy is working on a laptop in the background. In the foreground is a Brand Manager.
Yellow Guy: “Sir, shall I put up our rainbow profile picture?”

Panel 2: Brand Manger snaps his head round and hisses “Cool your jets, Eugene. I’m checking the Profitometer”

Panel 3: Gonna do my best to explain this. We see The Profitometer. A huge machine that whirs and ticks. A digital display at the top of the machine reads “Supporting Pride equals”Beneath this display is a huge gauge with “Max Loss” on the left and “Max profit” on the right. There is a needle that is pointing exactly half way between the two extremes.

Panel 4: Close up on Brand Manager’s face. His teeth are gritted. Sweat trickles down his brow.

Panel 5: Close up on gauge. The needle remains exactly central

Panel 6: Close up on Brand Manager’s eyes. They are concentrating intensely. Also, more sweat.

Panel 7: Close up on the gauge. The needle clicks ONE DEGREE towards profit

Panel 8: Brand Manager screams like a football coach “GO GAY EUGENE”
