Al's Biggest Threat: Young People W... 4.3k upvotes • 442 comments SonofRodney • 6h I recently heard about a teacher who instead of trying to circumvent students using ai, which is impossible, she made assignments by going "ask ChatGPT to write a report on this subject, and then research how and why it's wrong".

The ultimate protest song. Musicians against AI.
Paul McCartney just dropped a surprise new protest album with Kate Bush, Annie Lennox, Damon Albarn, Billy Ocean, Ed O’Brien, Dan Smith, The Clash, Mystery Jets, Jamiroquai, Imogen Heap, Yusuf / Cat Stevens...

I think the shortest version of why LLMs are an anti education technology is that education is fundamentally about making shared context to understand ourselves, each other, and the world

And by design LLMs destroy shared context

No joke, this is excellent music for a quiet and relaxed Sunday! 👍

Meet the AI workers who tell their friends and family to stay away from AI When the people making AI seem trustworthy are the ones who trust it the least, it shows that incentives for speed are overtaking safety, experts say

#AI is developing rapidly, and by that we mean getting much, much worse:

"rates of chatbots [admitting they didn't know] went down from 31% in August 2024 to 0% in August 2025 [while] repeating false information almost doubled from 18% to 35%"

I was surprised, as always, by how easy the act of leaving was, and how good it felt. The world was suddenly rich with possibility.

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.
