8. often, when people say LLMs "can do" something they mean LLMs can produce output that looks like the output of doing something 9. producing something that looks like the output of doing something is not the same thing as doing it

3. LLMs are ill-suited or dangerous for many of the purposes for which they are advertised 4. there has been a heavy top-down push for institutional adoption by bosses and administrators, which has reinforced public perception that using them is a safe, responsible choice

All else aside there is nothing I want or need genAI to do for me. I like reading. I like doing research. I like playing around in spreadsheets. I like interviewing people. I like writing. I like doing these things for myself because I take pleasure in the doing and they make me a better thinker.

I do not and will not use AI. Period. But particularly in my teaching. I will not create lessons, lecture notes, or feedback with AI. If I expect students to do their own work I will do so too.

Pretty interesting how, if the university didn’t pay you on time, it takes weeeeeeks before you see that money. But if they overpay you they sure as hell take that money back right quick.

I have been waiting on peer review of an article for 8 months now. I have reached put to the editor twice and they say they will reach out to the peer reviewer. And I get it peer reviewing isn’t paid labor (we should fix that!), but I had the summer to work on potential revisions and now… oh well

Sad to hear of the passing of the remarkable scholar Johanna Fernández. Dr. Fernández was committed to sharing important history inside and outside the academy. Her work as Lead Scholar on Hidden Voices: Latines in US History ensured Latinx history will be available to K-12 students everywhere.

I know you said you don’t do it at night but you probably do. I got a hard plastic mouth guard molded by my dentist (not cheap, but hey, care credit). It has made such a difference to how sore my jaw is. It forces my jaw to relax and might help alleviate daytime grinding, idk…

No, a degree is not only about making money and it's sad but predictable that this is where we're at. Things which are not money have value. Yes. Imagine that...But given the cost of a degree (which is a real problem), it's no wonder shit like this gets asked. #HigherEd #Teaching
