Interesting. Studying EduApps, makes sense that kids have to relearn how to ignore extraneous content in each new app. But, are apps the context or is each app a context.

Thanks for sharing.

Studying humans by querying GenAI = Googling how many rocks to eat.

"Psychology is meant to study humans, not patterns at the output of biased statistical models." It baffles me this needs to be said, but here we are. There are already viral studies from respected scientists suggesting we can learn something about human cognition from LLMs. Scary & disgraceful.

For those interested in micro genetic work and the theory of change here is a paper by Siegler. This approach used computational methods to model change in math strategy use and found that new strategies rise and fall over time, do not grow linearly.

I look forward to reading the paper! Ran out of room to say that above.

Agreed. Coming from a developmental approach to learning, we use microgenetic studies. Tricky part is theorizing when and at what rate change occurs to properly time data collection. Siegler wrote about this a lot, we did a couple.

On the latest PWL, you spoke about AI and Theory of Self (ie, theory of mind).

I’m a researcher studying ToM and AI.

You folks were spot on with many of your critiques.

You might find this interesting.

LLMs can’t understand ppl and most ppl don’t understand LLMs.

In 2021, we argued a useful social AI requires a Theory of Mind for PPL and PPL need a Theory of Artificial minds for AI.

Neither of these exist. LLMs can’t have ToM and PPL don’t have AI literacy.

Welcome to Campus. Here’s Your ChatGPT.

OpenAI's VP for education recently said the company wanted to become "core infrastructure" for schools and universities. Any infrastructure, though, always depends on habituating users to its technical affordances - so I've been trying to track how it's doing that 🧵 www.nytimes.com/2025/06/07/t...

Starting a thread of GenAI education advertising to see what they promise and how they sell themselves to students, teachers, and the public.

Many sell cheating outright.

Can be tricky to find them, because ads run between videos, not as videos.

Should you use LLMs to summarize articles or conduct systematic reviews?

No!

1-LLMs can’t evaluate article quality
2-They overstate study results
3-WTH is the point of being an academic if we don’t even read each others work!!!

Book cover of The Shape of Wonder.

Best book I have read in years. Brilliant, relatable, fun, important, and such a great read. It has inspired me to be better and a big part of improving the credibility of science. Buy from your local independent bookstore.

Q: How do you justify taking that risk of alienating the United States [by recognizing Palestine] when we still don't have a trade deal?

CARNEY: Canada has values and Canada sticks by those values. We have an independent foreign policy, we make decisions that are consistent with our values.
