The book is full of cool stuff that @rikworth.bsky.social & I think you and the young people in your life will get a kick out of.

I’ve been sharing art from Pets Tell Tales: Ancient Rome (available in Feb) because the idea you make something just for yourself is insane to me.
I want people to see stuff I’ve worked on. It’s a way of communicating parts of your brain with tools that go beyond words.
It’s nice to be seen.

AI Is Hollowing Out Higher Education Olivia Guest & Iris van Rooij urge teachers and scholars to reject tools that commodify learning, deskill students, and promote illiteracy.

β€œUltimately, the collective strategy of AI companies threatens to deskill precisely those people who are essential for society to function(…) automation of knowledge and culture by private companies is a worrying prospect – conjuring dystopian and outright fascistic scenarios.” β€” @olivia.science
