Great article, finishing with this is quite well said. "The industry has shown nothing but contempt for narrative art that speaks to the human imagination—the very thing that’s keeping it alive.End of article"

How Catastrophic Is It If the AI Bubble Bursts? An FAQ.
The AI industry's most important product is not a chatbot or a video generator; it's the story the AI industry is telling about itself
theringer.com
When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.
Chatbots — LLMs — do not know facts and are not designed to be able to accurately answer factual questions. They are designed to find and mimic patterns of words, probabilistically. When they’re “right” it’s because correct things are often written down, so those patterns are frequent. That’s all.
Great advice! When I welcome new teachers my advice is always anticipate/ prepare your reactions to common student behaviour ex: if you assign homework some students may not do it. If you're prepared for this then your response becomes routine, equitable, and not emotional.

"In my mind, this is no longer a conversation about anything else. Children are starving and being murdered in Gaza by the Israeli military while they seek to feed themselves. It feels impossible to talk about anything else in this conflict when that degree of sociopathic violence is occurring."

Perhaps controversially.

Carney has put out another strongly worded finger-wagging for Israel with NO concrete action. Shocking to see our prime minister acknowledge Israel’s violation of international law but still not announce sanctions, a real two-way arms embargo, recognition of a Palestinian state….ANY actual action.

Worth a watch: Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

As always, in order to help students adapt their behaviour, have an open attitude, ask questions, and listen.
Edutopia@edutopia.org · 2y agoWhen Jen Roberts / @jen.litandtech.com talks to students who she knows have turned in AI writing as their own work, she almost always starts with the same question: “Tell me what happened here?” 🧵1/5 #EduSky

So apparently the AP Human Geography site is culling some of its "daily videos" for class use. A teacher tells me the videos on redlining and white flight are gone. In the screenshot below, you can see the Daily Videos start with no. 2 (no. 1 on this page was redlining, and it's gone now).
📣 X isn’t the Twitter it once was. Under Elon Musk, a non-elected member of a foreign government that just put crippling tariffs on Canada, the hate, conspiracy theories, and disinformation have increased. Help us tell Canadian Members of Parliament: Stop Using X! 👇

Magic School isn't the only option. @hollyclarkedu.bsky.social does some good things around teaching students AI. I would check her resources. I'm personally more reserved about student use. This under regulated technology doesn't necessarily need to be shoved into student hands...
