Last year, one of the classes I work with earned a movie day, and they picked an animated film where all the kids had personal robots that looked pretty much like this mascot.

i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

MA residents must register (or update their registration) within 10 days of an election. This deadline creates an unnecessary barrier that disenfranchises college students, unhoused people, & low-income families facing housing insecurity. Vote YES on Question 4.

Perhaps the biggest reason for teachers not to use AI in school is the fact that these “educational AIs” can & will use the hard work & know-how of teachers who use it to replace them. My former school system is adopting an Amazon-owned edAI platform. Guess what Amazon’s gonna do with that data

The 3rd floor staff bathroom is located inside the resource room I teach in. (Once upon a time in the 1920s when the school was built, the room was the staff room.) Due to this fact, I make A LOT of signs. Do you know what I have never once needed in order to make those signs?

The thing about Seth Moulton is that there is not a thing he actually believes. The man will say whatever he *thinks* will get him votes. That's why he's suddenly on the abolish ICE train now that he's running for Senate. All of this makes him very susceptible to these sorts of moral panics.
