I still want to figure out how to teach them about how AI draws from existing online sources, and ends up missing out on many perspectives. Still trying to figure out a way to make that idea accessible to them.

I've been teaching my grade sevens about how Google AI can hallucinate fake information, like in the article below. They seemed to get the point when we made up our own idioms and it made weird answers.
This helped, along with talking about what makes a source reliable.

Oh no! He taught me in my first year and I ended up switching majors because I enjoyed his class so much. He was a great prof.

I'd put a lot more emphasis on transgender people sharing their lived experience about how protecting gender expression improves their lives and makes them safer than the people against the bill who shared a lot of misconceptions, misinformation and in some cases outright conspiracy theories.

Now I want to learn more about the history of the Human Rights Commission. That would be a fascinating book.

I was forwarded an email about this today and ended up sending a letter in support of the bill. It looks like there are a lot of people presenting tonight.

I was hoping that he'd fade into obscurity, but no such luck I guess.

The last time I discussed him with students, the girls in my class were loudly disgusted with him. The boys were somewhat quieter.

I still don't have an answer!

I suppose I should be glad that when we watch the occasional YouTube video at school, the ads are mainly for Grammarly or cleaning products.
