I'm so glad you're doing this!! I just finished the book a couple of weeks ago and I've been thinking of it ever since. It's so amazing.

Somewhere sometime on some corner of the internet I saw Britney Spears's (masterpiece) Blackout described as "voidier than the darkest black metal." I just finished reading Shelley's The Last Man and that's the description that keeps coming to mind.

17th century engraving of a capybara under a palm tree eating a banana

A break from Christmas content to enjoy this capybara eating a banana. From François Froger's 'A relation of a voyage ...' (London, 1698).

And the fact that the only thing I feel like I can trust is work they've done in front of my eyes is exactly the issue

Also when I say this I hear some bro in the distance shouting "well if you just have them write stuff in class everything will be fine!" I overhauled my entire approach to assessment this semester to foreground analog and in-class work but it's still not enough.

One of the things I hate most about AI is the way it poisons my relationship with my students. I'm constantly unsure if what I'm reading is their thoughts. I feel at once like a chump for potentially responding earnestly to AI and a cop for questioning if this is really their work.

The closest I got to understanding Fahrenheit was the 5 months I lived in LA and listened to David Lynch’s daily weather reports, but it still doesn’t really make sense to me

Hello everyone I am so depressed about AI. Every time I think about AI and my students and my job and what teaching is now for more than 0.01 seconds I get so sad and upset I feel like I need to crawl in a hole. So that’s fun
