I'm here for the growing caregiver resistance to educational technology. And while I disagree with how some caregivers construct their arguments about when, why, and how to use tech in school, I hope we can agree that Meta are a bunch of ghouls and teen accounts aren't the answer. #PairedTexts
Lee Drutman @leedrutman.bsky.social · 4m Having read A LOT of social science over the decades and having spent a lot of time with Claude recently, this feels absolutely right. Opus 4.6 is really powerful, and the models keep getting better. The standards of what counts as a "contribution" will have to change. They've had to for a while.
Justin Zimmerman @jztidecat.bsky.social · 20m How I see it is AI will exacerbate bad and underdeveloped theory and conclusions, especially of marginalized groups. You can’t AI your way into understanding and properly researching Black politics, for example. What you can do is come up with harebrained ideas and potentially harmful conclusions.
