The billionaire class poisons activist discourse spaces by filling them with white noise, making it harder to use the internet to build social movements. Now they're coming for the knowledge spaces too, at a time when political assaults on real-world learning spaces are growing.

I think this is such a major driver of AI use in university assessments. And also just a real… disconnection between why we think students are here (to learn about history!) and why students think they are here (to get good grades, to get a job)
