MIT put out a report on AI Use in Teaching, Learning, and Research Training. It's a) mostly pretty sensible and b) not really about tech. Good read.

Before I submit any writing, I find and remove all instances of "It is worth mentioning that" (if it's not worth mentioning, why am I writing it??) and "It is important to note that" (convince the reader it's important through the substance, not empty words..). Pure academic throat clearing, gone.

Cute detail in @jeffgortmaker.com's JMP: in a paper about open source software, pyBLP is used for the demand estimation, which is Jeff's own open source software! It's a great paper - you should take a look at it.
