I mean, some guys even defend this scam as if it was just a weird coincidence, a force of nature or even worse, this professor being ‘clever’, by saying: “because having his name on a paper does not mean he wrote it all”.

When an anonymous AI-professor (we know his name, but in most headlines not mentioned or presented with a photo) frauds his way into academics by prompting his ‘articles’, and all say suddenly the system is the problem: then we know who is protecting who, don’t we?

Natuurlijk gun ik Dassen een beter debat. Het is echter al lang zo dat er helemaal niks te lachen valt voor mensen die zinloze “AI” opgedrongen krijgen op kantoor of voor de onzichtbare handen, mensen die onder erbarmelijke omstandigheden moeten werken in de aanvoerlijnen van de techindustrie.

when ai leaves u behind

7 panel comic.

Panel 1:
A Red Guy with AI across his chest looks like he’s about to run away. A Yellow Guy stands next to him. Red Guy says “I’m the future, buddy. You comin’?”
Yellow Guy replies “Nah”

Panel 2:
Red Guy is almost out of the panel. He leans in and says “Enjoy getting left behind, pal”
Yellow Guy replies “ok”

Panel 3:
Yellow Guy stands alone.

Panel 4:
Close up on Yellow Guy, there is a quiet “huff-huff-huff” noise coming from behind him

Panel 5:
Yellow Guy turns to look behind him

Panel 6:
Close up on Yellow Guy’s face as if from the point of view of an attacker.
Yellow Guy yells “Jesus Christ”

Panel 7:
AI Red Guy is now chasing the Yellow Guy.
Red Guy: “Use me”
Yellow Guy “No”
Red Guy “USE ME”

Every chatbot prompt box says "check answers for accuracy." But increasingly, "humans in the loop" refuse to do that. Instead, they become complicit in the AI industry's project of destroying the provenance of information. But you are person, and it is an app. It can't take responsibility for you.

Daar heb ik over nagedacht en het zit voor mij in de vragen die je nog meer kunt stellen als je hier mee start. Op kantoor is die ‘onontkoombaarheid’ er wel en het geloof dat ‘AI’ slim, productief en zelfs neutraal is. En dus neem ik dat als uitgangspunt in dat binaire narratief.

And yes, always good to test and review your product. But test it in the right way. Having machines testing machines being designed to mimic humans is just wrong. We also do not test drugs, vehicles or bridges like that. And that’s for a reason.

Checking the ‘conversations’ of a machine without the conversational standards with a chatbot which is a machine. That is like measuring temperature with a hygrometer and ask a computer to print some statements.

There is a lot to say about this case of theft. But it is not unique. Names of female scientists were erased in history and their work and discoveries were stolen, prizes were given to man. Maybe this case ‘helps’ to understand the injustice lots of people endure.

Wiep Hamstra @wiep.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Interesting that theft, abuse, pornography, destruction of knowledge, billions burned, women attacked, teenagers killed did not count so much to the privileged. Because ‘AI is the future’. But now a male and white mathematician is robbed of his work (also bad!), some feel ‘betrayed’. 🤔

And he described his own ‘flutbaan’ we can get rid of. Because that’s what we do, decide how to get rid about other people’s jobs. “Er zijn wel flutbanen die door AI kunnen verdwijnen. Denk aan mensen die rapporten schrijven als er iets misgaat in een bedrijf.”

O and also: thinking about writing all down. Like the spears needed for the hunt. Maybe you should check how these things are being made. And how a mammoth can be found and where. Would love to have some recipes to and how to make a fire on a gloomy day. All human knowledge!

Wiep Hamstra @wiep.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

Also, try to think about painted caves we did not find. Or works that went unpublished or unnoticed. Or languages that disappeared. Or civilizations covered in the jungle. Happy imagination day 😊

Wiep Hamstra @wiep.bsky.social · 21/06/2026

How to chase a mammoth? And make coats out of the fur? That is human knowledge but it is not on computers. What we know, or think to know, is sometimes decoded and interpreted by decoding forms of language, like pictures in caves. So just apply this on the claims when someone says ‘AI’ knows all.

As studies show, those who don't understand 'AI' are more likely to adopt it, which explains why so many experts are opposed to it and why so many very AI-literate Canadians are refusing to adopt it. Maybe the gov needs to listen to experts and Canadians instead of the AI industry?

Sometimes basic concepts like ‘machines are not minds’ need some explaining. Especially needed in times when people easily mess up their logic thinking because of false marketing and hype economics around heavy subsided failing software.
