Si no hay más discusión ética y políticas basadas en evidencia e investigación sobre cómo se están desplegando estas tecnologías y cómo reorientarlas, volamos hacia un futuro incluso más distópico tipo Altered Carbon donde tendremos que luchar por el derecho a no ser revividos digitalmente etc.

Si no aprendemos a valorar que la vida y el presente son únicos e irrepetibles y no aprendemos a despedirnos y a dejar ir, que no se puede tener ni experimentar ni vivir todo, se caerá redondito en este apetito inagotable de presencia (artificial) perpetua....

Sadly, and perhaps unsurprisingly, if I had to sum up the effects so far of widely available GenAI tools in higher education and scholarship, I'd say in my experience they are proving to be mostly negative: more unnecessary work, more frustration.

This guidance should be useful not just to students but possibly to some staff too? If not, should be interesting as part of ongoing efforts to document academic engagements with AI and GenAI in particular
