A cheerful, cartoon-style illustration commemorating an "AI Assisted Blogging Milestone," featuring a smiling man in a space-age bubble. He is wearing glasses and a light blue flight suit while working at a computer desk, with a friendly robot pointing at the screen from within an orange data vortex. Surrounding them are whimsical space elements, including Saturn, flying saucers, tower stations, floating papers, a secure data shield, and a conveyor belt of glowing cubes leading to a sign that reads "6,390."

I shared this on "Learning Signs," our family learning blog we started back in October 2007. It's now running on a new subdomain (of my wesfryer.com site) and on a new, faster server / web host. But that's not the biggest deal! The family audio recordings I recovered ARE!

The Google Vids splash screen greets the user with the message "Hello, Wesley. Let’s start creating" alongside video format selection buttons for landscape, portrait, and square. Below the greeting, a grid of feature options displays various tools like creating AI videos, editing videos, personal avatars, AI avatars, and converting docs to video. Additional preview tiles at the bottom showcase scenic landscapes, video recording interfaces, working environments, and a plus icon to create a blank video. A close icon in the top right corner allows the user to exit the interface.

Please join the MediaEd Club of the Media Education Lab for our monthly meetup and webinar on Monday, October 5th at 12pm ET discussing "The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist." mediaeducationlab.com/events/becom... #AI #MediaLit #MediaLiteracy #ethics #DataCenter #DataCenters #edtech

An editorial cartoon, titled "Becoming an Apocaloptimist," splits its subjects with a lightning bolt against a backdrop of a massive power plant and power lines, showcasing opposing viewpoints. On the left, in warm tones, a group of men representing an anxious perspective display a sign reading "I'm scared," while another holds a scroll stating "WE MUST PACE THE FRONTIER" with others giving thumbs up. In contrast, the cooler right side features a smirking man in a leather jacket with arms crossed whose speech bubble says "not grounded in facts," alongside an intellectual sketching equations. Below the division, a man with a baby and camera looks confused, next to a group of confused and discussing people.

(1/3) I’m creating multimedia / enhanced eBooks each week with our Greek vocabulary words, for the Koine Greek (Biblical Greek) online course I’m taking through Union Presbyterian Seminary here in Charlotte.

This image displays three vertical educational sheets titled "Greek Vocabulary" side by side. Each sheet features a specific lesson breakdown by Wes Fryer for Koine Greek I, ranging from Week 1 to Week 2. The center of each document contains a bordered grid displaying the lowercase Greek alphabet from alpha to omega with English transliterations below each letter. The bottom of each sheet includes update dates, noting September 20, September 19, and September 11 of 2026 respectively.

You can't emulate Christ without loving those whom you want to disdain, hate, despise, or vilify. You can't love someone without having empathy for them. You can't fully empathize with someone without having the heart of Christ and seeing them as He does.

The image is a dark, swamp-themed slide titled "The Land Between" with white text set against silhouetted trees and water. It features a subtitle about unearthing the Great Dismal Swamp as a sanctuary of resistance, survival, and community. The slide notes it was prepared for a September 13th Spiritual Formation Discussion titled "Maroons in the Land Between." Additionally, a paragraph explains how a 2,000-square-mile wetland straddling Virginia and North Carolina served as a refuge for self-emancipated Black Maroons.

Agree. Too many people are falling into binary thinking about AI and so many other issues. Lots more complexity, and layers to things than just on or off.

I hope so. I’ve visited with Jason Neiffer (my #edtechSR weekly podcast collaborator) about this a bit. Returning (and re-orienting AI hype anxiety) to conversations and a focus on pedagogy, student engagement, and authentic assessment is so needed… edtechsr.substack.com/p/edtechsr-e...

A split-screen video thumbnail features two men speaking directly to the camera with outdoor landscape virtual backgrounds. On the left, Wes Fryer wears a blue "Air Force Academy" cap and a black graphic tee against a backdrop of rolling green mountains under a cloudy sky. On the right, Jason Neiffer smiles with his hands gesturing toward his chest, wearing glasses, a grey beard, and a black polo shirt in front of a sunlit tree and roadside setting. Blue and white name banners run along the bottom of each frame, identifying Wes Fryer from Charlotte, NC (wesfryer.com) and Jason Neiffer from Missoula, Montana (AICentrist.com).

What amazes me is that two of my colleagues as well as prominent tech podcasters like Leo Laporte are essentially saying “no big deal, nothing to see here.” They’re arguing the AI acted according to instructions. podcasts.wesfryer.com/episode/2HPm...

An editorial cartoon features a retro-style wooden snake oil stand with a large red banner at the top reading "REJECT REAGAN ANTI-TRUST POISON." A smiling cowboy in a brown hat leans against the counter next to a giant bottle labeled "GOVERNMENT IS THE ENEMY" featuring a portrait of Ronald Reagan, alongside smaller bottles marked "RUGGED INDIVIDUALISM," "SMALL GOVERNMENT," and "DEREGULATION." Below the counter, a group of confused and skeptical citizens look up at the stand, while a small sapling grows from a cracked, barren ground nearby. The hashtag "#healourculture" is printed in the bottom left corner.

A bottom banner displays the logos for Long Lead, Campside, and PRX, alongside text marking it as Season 02 published on April 12, 2023.
