Someone on campus mentioned using AI to create teaching materials. Yes. That person should be shamed.

It’s totally fine to say, “hey I don’t accept the convenience costs of AI’s economic and ecological disruptions and I value the inefficiency of human creativity so we will pass on collaborations that accept that trade off!”

That is the main thing I want to say to regular AI users.

Your inefficiencies, your wanderings and learnings, the time you take, the confusion and blocks you work your own way through are a valuable creative process!

Way more valuable than what a LLM can barf up.

It is sickening how living and thinking in a human body is now considered “a waste of time and resources”

Ugly ugly shit.

This reminds me of a comment my mentor said when we discussed how many 11/12-grade students are taking college classes and it’s affecting the culture at the high school.
Students need to simmer.

That’s a value statement. And you’re either on our team or you’re not.

People act as if efficiency and convenience are inherently good, without considering the cost of all that convenience, who that efficiency benefits, whether the end result is actually positive.

Oops I guess I just rephrased much of what you said already 😄

In the b-school we’re being told that we need to help the students practice with the giant plagiarism machine b/c otherwise they’ll be at a disadvantage in the biz world and no one seems to be reflecting on what that says about business

Screenshotting this because literally people look at you like you’re insane for not using AI and this is the perfect response

Can we start a film/book club of the infinite works that detail what could go wrong with AI?

Does anyone have any confidence any of these companies have taken anywhere near the proper care to ensure anyone's safety?
