I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful
I have started running Claude alongside the book I am writing on ants, as well as just letting Google Gemini do its thing at the top when I do Google search. It is not doing any writing I am using, and I am always checking the results against primary sources.
Oh no, the metaphors are spreading to other continents.

Hi hello! Don’t buy these glasses. Don’t wear them. Tell your friends not to buy them. Call them stupid every time you see them. SOCIALLY BOYCOTT the concept of this level of insanity.

I am responsible for the academic skills line in our AI programme and I think part of the 26/27 curriculum needs to be to help students understand that all those “AI assistants” that publishers and apps force on them are in fact “traps” for them to avoid. >>
Olivia Guest · Ολίβια Γκεστ@olivia.science · 3w ago> Something seems to be lost on my peers today: it’s still easy to not use AI.

Just use a computer the same way you did three years ago!
