GenAI has no place in education. GenAI is, in fact, the antithesis of education.
Not to mention, access to these technologies come with potential for addiction, psychological harm, and pure deskilling of the next generation.
The only reason to put them in schools is to make money for AI companies.
A "pause AI" letter that I actually like (and signed)! Because it's not about imagined doomsday scenarios, but rather putting the brakes on the rush to impose synthetic text extruding machines in schools in particular:

So at the risk of maybe overreading this and making an educated guess, I think I can guess what specifically Wyden is talking about.
I think it's about use of AI (LLMs) by FBI to surveil American communications without a warrant
«Sjokkfunn! Folk som oppsøker lege på grunn av sykdom er i gjennomsnitt mer sannsynlig å ha flere legebesøk enn de som ikke oppsøker lege. Leger er åpenbart en trussel mot folks helse.»
Tenk å få betalt for å hver dag uttale seg skråsikkert om noe man ikke har filla peil på. Hvis Aglen tror at adhd kun er "uro og konsentrasjonsvansker", at det er lett å få adhd- eller autismediagnose, og gullkornet at det gir "økonomiske fordeler", så kan hun holde så jævlig kjeft.
It’s as if… he’s got no cards.
Ja, dette var ganske åpenlyst nazistisk. 😳
Norge har et nazistisk parti igjen nå som Alliansen gikk dukken. Det nazistiske partiet heter Norgesdemokratene. Spørsmålet er hva vi skal gjøre med at disse driver og organiserer seg, skal ha konferanse på nytt den 13. juni (i Oslo) og kommer til å være på gater og torg under valgkamp.
Verdens verste kronikk-sjanger: person som ikke har behov for hjelp føler at verdensbildet deres trues av at andre får hjelp.
Vi som har ADHD har en viktig funksjon i samfunnet. Vi er objekter som en gruppe privilegerte mennesker kan bruke til å fylle opp kvota med moralsk panikk-kronikker i alle medier.
Why I don't expect liberal democracy to go away any time soon: My article on the resilience of liberal democracy, published in @jeppjournal.bsky.social.
Perfectly timed to the day after Orbáns defeat and a small spike in "democracy-optimism".
There are, I argue, good reasons for such optimism.
Trump is demonstrating the importance of credibility in international relations.
He is not credible. He’s shown that others can’t trust what he says, and can’t act as if his stance will be the same tomorrow. He can’t communicate demands or make reliable offers. He made America’s word is worthless.

It's not just that Orbán losing inspires hope in other competitive-autocratic countries ruled by right-wing nationalist authoritarians. It's that his loss materially changes things in those other countries, because he's been operating as a headquarters and funding source...
Far-right cultural values aren't actually all that popular, and become considerably less so when people are subject to their rule. The history of human progress is one of increasing liberalism, even if that progress is uneven. We might not always win, but we will win, and progress continues.
Tonight I'm thinking of the many Hungarians I've met over the years - many of them abroad against their wishes, many of them queer - who haven't stopped fighting, for sixteen years. For most of us, Orbán was an on-and-off nuisance on TV - at best. For them, he was a constant nightmare.
It’s a special kind of pleasure to see a Russian investment and a MAGA endorsement backfire massively ☺️

Assuming Iran is more dependent on that oil getting out than the US, which is very questionable…
Sure. But what matters is getting oil onto world markets, it doesn’t really matter whether it is «US-friendly purposes» or not. Closing it will increase oil prices globally, including gas prices in the US. At best it’s a kind of chicken race with Iran, at worst it’s just a self-defeating tantrum.
Over half of Americans want Congress to impeach Trump now, according to a new poll. One in seven Republicans backs it.
no offense to the hungarian people but i’m sorry, the idea that hungary is some last bastion of “western civilization” is absurd. can’t overstate how much this post-liberal, national conservative nonsense makes you sound like a putz

Same for if you use chatbots to "improve" your writing. A chatbot is all about the average. It will smooth all the edges off your prose, the stuff that makes it alive and interesting.
Being a good writer is not about being blandly average.

People need to understand that it is a good thing if Trump threatens to leave NATO and says the US will not fight for Europe. The truth was the alliance was dead the moment he became president again. The US under him would never fight to defend Europe from Russia. Pretending otherwise was dangerous.
