Hard no to the educational evangelists now pushing us to ‘embrace’ corporate gen AI as inevitable. And shame on the universities buying this crap and funding ‘expert’ speaker series espousing it.

Selected text from an institutional email that states: “What is Postplagiarism? Postplagiarism refers to our current era where artificial intelligence has become part of everyday life, fundamentally changing how we teach, learn, and create. Rather than viewing Al as a threat to academic integrity, the postplagiarism framework offers practical approaches for embracing Al as a collaborative tool while preserving the values of authentic learning and ethical scholarship.

Vinyl, sleeve, and booklet from the Drive-By Truckers, The Complete Dirty South.
