@ibogost.com Thank you for writing the AI coding article. As a K-12 CS teacher, I have a couple of questions after reading: How do you think intro programming instruction should change in light of AI tools? Would you be willing to share the syllabus/ reading list for Retro Game Design?

This doesn’t help much when a lot of U.S. cities have fairly poor public transit systems and are, for the most part, not very walkable.

I wish @kairyssdal.bsky.social knew someone who could tell us if the numbers in this article make sense and add up. AI training costs as 1/10 of the global economy feels like a ridiculous figure.

At the center of my message to faculty yesterday was: 1.) We may not be adequately prepared for how angry students are about tech. 2.) They are not all angry for the same reasons. 3.) Being angry at it doesn’t mean they aren’t using it. The sense of entrapment fuels the anger.

I think about this point by Adorno so often of late.

My thesis about this would be that all
humans deep down, whether they admit this or not, know that it
would be possible or it could be different. Not only could they live
without hunger and probably without anxiety, but they could also
live as free human beings. At the same time, the social apparatus has
hardened itself against people, and thus, whatever appears before
their eyes all over the world as attainable possibility, as the evident
possibility of fulfillment, presents itself to them as radically impossible. And when people universally say today what was once reserved
only for philistines in more harmless times, "Oh, that's just utopian;
oh, that's possible only in the land of Cockaigne. Basically that
shouldn't be like that at all," then I would say that this is due to the
situation compelling people to master the contradiction between the
evident possibility offulfillment and the just as evident impossibility
offulfillment only in this way, compelling them to identify themselves
with this impossibility and to make this impossibility into their own
affair. In other words, to use Freud, they "identify themselves with
the aggressor" and say that this should not be, whereby they feel that
it is precisely this that should be, but they are prevented from attaining
it by a wicked spell cast over the world.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

It's conference season, so I wanted to share the AI refusal statement I put at the end of my presentations and book talks. Feel free to use it!

AI Refusal Statement
I did not use generative AI at any point in the production of this book or presentation, including the literature review, writing, editing, translation, organization, or any other task (e.g. brainstorming). To the extent that it is possible to know, I did not cite any studies that used generative AI.
Justification: GenAI technology is based on stolen labor, anti-solidarity between workers, class exploitation, structural racism, misogyny, environmental injustice, and climate destabilization.

Fundamentally, the story here is that humans are wired for hierarchy - status competition is an instinct we have. But we can and should mock and despise the people who cannot or will not rise above that instinct, the same as we would an adult who refused to ever be potty-trained.

I think the DNC has come to believe that outside of blue states, actually advocating for pluralism or a sense of mutual responsibility is a non-starter. Thus you are left to argue about who’s more authentic and in touch with “ordinary” people.
