I did read your whole thread and you make excellent points. (of course!) About wrestling with ideas and overcoming missteps--it's all good & true.
I'm just picking up on a tangent *I* feel strongly about.
Recommend reading @biblioracle.bsky.social for more on this tangent.

I think schooling is too often formulaic. Teachers/Profs who give the same tired assignments can't complain when their student hack the system.
A writing or science teacher that asks real questions is more likely to get real answers. (They may not be good answers, but it's a starting place!)

Love this conversation!
That clip is such gobbly-gook—unsubstantiated, as Ann points out. I’d say it’s Trumpian in that it’s an irresponsible someone trying to create their own self-serving reality.

Adobe too. I would like to at least hide the AI help box. Just go away!

The AI we currently have is a glorified If-Then program. It won't create new stories, it will regurgitate stolen bits and pieces. If it's fed on it's own work it will become useless trash very quickly.
Why would you want to end the careers of creators for that?

This piece reports on efforts to reduce car dependence across Europe. (Whilst we Americans argue about congestion pricing in one city.)
