"Instead of changing individual students, it’s easier to change the system. And to many of the students I have spoken with about AI, there’s a resentment about this assumption of distrust." #ai #edtech

Bezos (Amazon), Zuckerberg (Meta), Pichai, (Google), Cook (Apple), Altman (OpenAI), donated $1mill each to the Trump/Musk inauguration, and were seated prominently during the ceremony. They are complicit in what is happening, including the mass banning of books.

This also includes veterans, including, I am told, at least some fully qualified wildland firefighters with actual fire experience. Per a source with knowledge: “I want everyone to know that they are firing veterans, fully qualified and trying to serve their country again in civil service.”

A comment about overt Nazi gestures from your fellow would have been ethically good. At least for the memory of previous scientists who have died in horrific circumstances.... At least.

Friends,supporters and colleagues of my wife @profsallybrown.bsky.social might like to help her with this worthwhile appeal. It would be great if some of the people she has helped over the years could cough up a fiver!

“With a false allegation comes concerns about forfeiting merit and academic scholarships and losing visas for international students. It’s not atypical for cases to drag on for weeks or months. In extreme situations, students have received letters accusing them of plagiarism after graduation…”

I guess it is easier to complain about WFH than it is to improve your managers’ skills and behaviours so that they enable their teams to be more productive Complaining is also cheaper. But a lot less effective in improving productivity
