Sometimes I hate my brain, but I have to remind myself that, like me, she's just doing her best with the difficult hand she's been dealt. It's not her fault that her chemistry is jacked. 😔

A bit like what’s happening in politics in a certain country, AI doesn’t have to be competent in order to be put in charge of important, humanity-changing things. It just had to sound like it could save someone a couple of bucks - and who cares if it ruins lives and everything blows up.

This is bone-chilling. A conservative hedge fund manager wants to require little girls to pass genital inspections for their “safety.” And it’s only for girls’ sports. There’s a clear link between transphobia and child sexual abuse.

I can't get away from the idea that the White House's UFC spectacle's deliberate "low class" and "trashy" aesthetic is the inevitable end result of obsessing over class signifiers that are, in truth, unrelated to actual power and money. It's billionaires pantomiming being tasteless yokels.

This is exactly it. The work is the point.
When I assign analysis, I am not trying to extract a polished product; I am trying to put the student’s mind through resistance in order to make it stronger. Offloading the struggle to a chatbot does not “free students up for higher-order work.” It deprives them of building the strength to do any substantial cognitive work at all.
