AI has already shown it can scam people as well as Sam Altman and that it can fabricate numbers like Sam Altman.

Spotted in the wild: a post- secondary education researcher who wants to fund education on the lifelong debt of poorer people.

Add to this that many faculty members are using it to write grant proposals. Should we just end academia and let GenAI teach everything?

Why don't you actually learn about income contingent loan repayment and how it was used in the real world with regard to tuition fees?

They planned to offer income contingent loan repayment to ease downward pressure on tuition fees. This would accelerate tuition increases. Please stop the Liberal apologizing.

OK. I just wanted to remind people of how Chretien+ tried to pay for higher ed through poor people.

Do we count the time the Liberals tried to tax poor people through income- contingent student loans?

There's a word for the specific form of psychological abuse in which transphobia is disingenuously portrayed as concern, caution, or scientifically rigourous evidence:

Casslighting.

I would love to read a history of law firms that added ".com" to their name during the boom.

I suspect that DLA Piper is either using AI in a much more generic sense or they will be sued out of existence within 5 years.

I believe that it does outperform most AI boosters and venture capitalists.

What if we just stopped telling people that using a wheelchair is the end of their life and then made things wheelchair accessible. Y’all will do everything but listen to us and at this point I’ve chosen to find it funny πŸ˜‚

Honestly, since the first "computing" paper demonstrated that any machine can compute what any other one can compute, one would think that this mysticification would be harder to do.

β€ͺDoctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Including disabled people in our utopian futures pushes back against a eugenicist ideal.

The same Canada with skyrocketing tuition and differential international student tuition? The same Canada that ended scads of education tax credits?

What a success! Spending an obscene amount of money and environmental resources produced a collection of code that can't possibly be used or fixed!
