In another session that day- 'Leading Past Collapse' - led by Teri Balser, we discussed how unis might lead students through inevitable social and environmental collapse. Universities of course need to work within a social and economic context, but what if they had a role in shaping that context?

Great to hear Rowena Harper exposing the uncomfortable truths about the social, environmental and governance impacts of #genAI in her #HERDSA2025 keynote. How can #highered be proactive and lead in critical education, rather than reactive to corporate interests?

Controversial take alert: the idea that engaging and 'playing' with genAI, but in a scholarly way, will help turn the tide towards ethical use, comes across as both arrogant and naïve. You are still feeding an unregulated, energy-hungry beast. If you have a choice, be critical, but not complicit.

AND I'm a parent, unionist and COVID realist angry at our multiple systemic failings and an advocate for OHS and workers' rights. So, here I am. Hi. 👋 (2/2)
