I could do this all day, but you get the point(s). Trust in higher ed ≠ trust in Ivy Leagues. Budgets are moral documents and if you want to examine trust in higher ed, look at how states prioritize public higher education.

Greatest trick AI leaders have pulled is convincing many people—especially influential people in govt, media, and business—that their software is intelligent, independent, yet never culpable. Humans build it, humans deploy it, but no one bears responsibility for the things that happen when they do.

2) It’s interesting (though predictable) that before they’ve read how the testing was conducted over 15 years I’ve seen comments attempting to debunk the results. The need to oppose is just knee jerk, even though this kind of circumstance was common in the slave society in which TJ lived.

"Democracy is bad, we should have an autocracy instead" isn't the incidental outcome of other inchoate populist impulses. It's what they sincerely and consciously believe, it's a real ideology and they know symbols matter as a reenforcing affirmation of a polity's governing ideological commitments.
