I often find myself alarmed, in university meetings, how many people are overwhelmingly positive about the wonder opportunities to pedagogy provided by AI, and how few display even basic skepticism.

If you haven't checked out the iconic Adam Smith Business School mural then you really should 👀 it even features a Tunnocks wafer (allegedly Smith's fave 😋). Well done to the creative talent behind this!
This is excellent to see 🙌
I'm picky about podcasts but Young Warriors is really worth a listen - I love how it weaves together stories from across six different cities, interviewing young people with the same energy and desire to make a lasting difference.
