when i saw this article & the surrounding discourse last week:

that makes sooooo much sense hahahaha

let's go!!!! ❤️‍🔥

don't be afraid to be yourself ❤️

this is the content I live for

I worked with Shannon as an undergrad at Barnard! She's lovely and it's great to hear she's now at the labor archives at NYU (:

yes—"AI literacy" is just another way of manufacturing consent for stuff that no one asked for!

@robarcand.bsky.social !!

things that made me smile recently

that's my oomfie!! ☝🏻

any reference to this album is like a bat signal for me, specifically

really great piece about public libraries as public infrastructure

shout out to @casualpasta.bsky.social and the amazing work they do with the Library Newsroom Project 🌟

exactlyyy!!!

don't know what you're talking about, but love this for you ❤️

finally had time to read this great new article from Defector about the top-down push for AI in higher ed!

it also links to our AAUP report on ed tech and its impact on academic labor, which you can read here: www.aaup.org/reports-publ...

University of California faculty push back against Big Brother cybersecurity mandate School officials defend software as bulwark against ransomware, but professors fear potential surveillance of their devices

UC faculty and the @aaup.org demand the end of mandatory surveillance software use across the UC system. The future belongs to people, not to big brother!

those videos of people getting sucked in by corn silos are terrifying!

the wool sweaters and long slip dresses from uniqlo are great ~layering pieces~ for work stuff in a pinch. the realreal is also good for nice sweaters and tailored blazers, although sizing can be kinda iffy!

Thank you so much for your interest in the panel—your work has greatly shaped my thinking! (:

very tempted to make this a sticker on my phone...

👋🏻 I'll be there!

one of my favorite places to work is the cluttered basement of the Jefferson Market Library—it has interesting exhibitions about the neighborhood's history, and I really enjoy how you can find random relics from the library stored seemingly haphazardly throughout the room

Join the Fight The issue is not whether you personally use Microsoft CoPilot to help with slogging through emails, and it’s not about punishing students. Rather, it is about the value of your work, being paid appropriately for it, the importance of learning and intellectual curiosity, being able to have control over your working conditions, and caring about the future of participation in a democratic society.

🔥 from @hellobrittparis.bsky.social Lindsey Weinberg, and Emma May around the weaponization of AI in higher ed.

I think you'll like the report, then—that's what it's about (:

For better part of this year, I've been working on this report as part of AAUP's committee on AI and Academic Professions. We surveyed over 500 members across ranks, job types, and institutions about AI deployment in higher ed.
