Very pleased that our online course about how to learn and thrive in an online world (https://thebullshitmachines.com) is mentioned in @johnthornhill.bsky.social's latest Financial Times piece.

One of the unspoken problems we are seeing with undergrads is that they talk to the AI and the AI tells them are a supergenius - when they are not in fact a supergenius.
Too bad, then, that you didn't even respond to my critique. Some of what you say is correct, but a lot of it is just restating your view and claiming it's an argument.
I realize it dates me, but became really clear to me in some early use of LLM’s that they were really elaborate “Eddie Haskell” machines: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Haskell
Thank you! If you know of anyone who might be interested in teaching from it, I'm happy to help out, give a zoom seminar, whatever. We've got about 50 schools lined up to use it for a course or a module in a course next fall, and I'd love to see it even more widely adopted.
