Great perspective from @sineadbovell.bsky.social: #AI isn’t about replacing jobs, it’s a wake-up call for the unmotivated. Those who embrace adaptability and continuous learning will thrive. Time to level up and stay ahead. #FutureOfWork #AIAdaptation

Those who treat AI as a magic wand waved over passive ambition will easily be outcompeted, even by AIs themselves. The gap between the motivated and the unmotivated widens. The average and the overachievers. This will be true across all sectors of knowledge work. open.substack.com/pub/sineadbo...

Canadian OpenAI researcher Kai Chen was denied a US green card today. She has lived and worked in the US for 12 years. I hope people are grasping the severity of what is unfolding.

I think one of the most important moves in the escalating trade war is China placing 7 rare earth metals on the export control list. This is a huge signal coming from Beijing—it’s telling the U.S.: watch out. Rare earths are essential to everything commercial to national security.

Who will be the *influencers* of the future? In an AI-mediated world, the signal from a trusted human becomes more valuable as it passes through more rigorous filters. Value shifts from sheer volume and follower count to resonance, trust, credibility and community. open.substack.com/pub/sineadbo...

Some of the most important skills for the future are the non-technical skills. Reading, critical thinking, curiosity, play, imagination, teamwork. We must prepare kids to adapt and think critically (and imaginatively) about the world around them. Regardless of the directions technology takes.

Sinead Bovell @sineadbovell.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

The threat Canada is facing is much bigger than tariffs. It’s a direct threat to our national security by virtue of crippling our ability to defend ourselves against (active) foreign aggression. Including the military pacing threat in Canada’s Arctic.

One of the most consequential technologies to global security is now being scaled during a time of hyper geopolitical uncertainty. Fractures between allies, breakdowns in decades-old transatlantic security packs, shifts towards a multi-polar world.

I don’t believe DeepSeek is a Sputnik moment. It’s an architectural breakthrough and will (should) serve as a valuable and innovative method US AI companies cannot ignore. But the real Sputnik moment will be if a Chinese AI company builds a model that can do things US AI models are not capable of

What percentage of students are you willing to falsely accuse of cheating with AI? There is a trade-off between false accusations and detection rates for AI. At a 10% false positive rate, detectors find 80% or less of AI content. At a 1% rate most find 60% or less. Don’t trust AI detectors!

If TikTok is banned or sold, it might look like Reels and Shorts would benefit most—but I don’t think this holds true in the medium to long-term. TikTok’s unique culture and algorithm can’t be easily replicated. Reels risks alienating Instagram’s core users
