Academic Meaning-Making as Gothic Practice: A Spell | Gothic Studies

It is also, implicitly, about all the things that are lost when we ask a machine to do the writing for us. And why I get the temptation to do so.

KI-språket er ikke nøytralt
Selv bruk av KI til enkel språkvask kan endre både form og innhold i en tekst.

I want to know exactly how popes write their encyclicals. Do you think Pope Leo is actually a scholar who has simply read a lot of digital media studies/STS/digital culture scholarship? Or does the Vatican hire scholars? Are such jobs posted to Euraxess? Or is the Vatican full of priestly scholars?

In a time without an academic job market in many fields, publishing is not really a push-factor anymore to get a permanent position within the humanities. This is not a hot take, we are simply too many publishing (great) stuff, and there are no jobs. There are no jobs. That’s about it.

At noe er basert på en tidligere tekt betyr jo ikke at det ikke har blitt brukt språkmodeller? Å skrive et debattinnlegg basert på en eksisterende tekst er en ekstremt enkel oppgave for ChatGPT.

A Google doodle logo where the o’s in Google are replaced by a bad AI rendition of some non-anatomically correct bright pink knitting. The two needles look like a weird broken screw, there aren’t enough stitches, and it’s all very ugly and low effort. There’s a link: “Make a plan for 2026 resolutions with Al Mode”

TechCrunch writes that OpenAI will charge $20,000 a month for access to an AI agent that can do “PhD level research”. Maybe all the PhDs and postdocs recently fired by DOGE should band together and sell their services as “AI agents” - apparently some people will pay more for robots than people.
