yes, very :(

ChatGPT, which usually responds to queries with third-person narration or second-person direct address, just used the first person in responding to me. It says it evaluated incorrectly the first time. I'm a bit creeped out TBH. #AI #technology #stillnotsentient

I love that there was a string octet accompanying #Coco for "Lift Every Voice and Sing" at #SuperbowlLX #classicalmusic

Mutual admiration society, it seems! Congrats!

A dark blue mug with an American flag reads “AMERICA 1776 – 2026”

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

I keep posting my book cover:

Have you figured out a way to save alt-text descriptions? I have yet to, other than copying and pasting from a document....

The end of the year is an appropriate time for reflection, including pondering how years roll out while one pores over a newspaper- or doesn't. You can do that with my book, No Paper Today, available here: #https://a.co/d/11w4xT1 #books #NewYear #poetry

Who?

Same in SC. Built to be efficient in summer, not winter. Freezing here the moment the sun goes down.

Oooh, pick me. 1. Full books exist as ends in themselves, not just to make students better readers. Though they can make students better people. 2. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. 3. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts...

I wrote a post on the importance of writing the essays for ModPo (Penn), the largest MOOC ever. Essays as the splinter à la Dickinson's "The Brain within its Groove." Not sure if you can see it without participating, but here:

Catch-22, they need to read Heller:

I can't help but think that the assault on middlebrow culture decades ago has led to the current state of affairs.

This was one of the best two books I read all summer. The other was John Keene's "Annotations."

How's this? 1. Learning how to navigate different tones and times 2. Time travel between the author and the reader, with attention to the thematic 3. Translation- of information, emotions, circumstances, while searching for the universals that transcend a given work 4. Love of language 5. Rhetoric

I'm a bit confused, as there seems to be a tension between "legitimate purpose" and disciplining/objectifying, no? And isn't reading many things? Isn't part of the current problem the trend to reduce reading to information gathering?

There's the narrow thing mattering as a signal that one had read the work, but also the narrow thing that matters as an amalgamation of small things may transform into something meaningful- but I suspect the latter is more likely to be highlighted in reductive summation material.

I remember when teachers would purposely include questions on quizzes that couldn't be answered based solely on having read SparkNotes/Cliff Notes and the like. The downside was that such questions usually focused on minutiae that didn't make students better at reading and analyzing.
