AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

This article pretty much sums up my perspective.

Recently became friends with the author. How have we not met before? This is starting out to be a super cool book.

Without the DISCIPLINE called “mathematics education,” mathematics will end up being only for the machines in the future, not us. Our field is existentially important for the preservation (in humanity) of this very important & ancient tradition (viz. mathematics): it’s an ACCOUNT of the human race.

The fact that Žižek’s next book (coming 2026) mirrors a forthcoming book chapter by @anarchoautistic.bsky.social , @kyleswhipple.bsky.social , and I…. That’s a cool-ass feeling!!! We must have all four been tuned into the same ideological suspicions at the same time.

Psychoanalysts help everyone individually move toward a different way of being with oneself, with others, and with the world, neither hoping for, nor imposing, nor making anybody believe in a miracle.

If you don’t want me to grade your work using AI, then don’t use AI to write your work.

My summer reading. Anyone else have suggestions to add once I finish marking these up to kingdom come? My dissertation was based heavily on Lacan’s Seminar XX… one of the best things I have ever read. #lacan #althusser #marx

Professors spent years convincing students that good writing meant following prescriptivist rules that stripped their writing of their unique voice and are now mad that students have taken that message to heart and are now ceding their voice to AI in order to better follow these prescriptivist norms

Contentment "social media" has always been oxymoronic

“‘Social media is dead’ is now the official tech ideology because ‘social media’ successfully served its purpose as an alibi for the complete digitization of experience, promulgating the idea that everything is information, everything can be quantified…”

13400 words: “ok NOW we’re almost done.”

At least we got a section out of it that we titled “Sex with Integers” 🥰
