The fun thing about anti-AI crusading is that you can suddenly be justifiably angry at virtually any field you want, from. educators to the workforce to government, because individuals in almost every field use it.

Or, you could be like @stanfordhai.bsky.social and work to make things better.

Google should be way more public about this. I basically have an AI phone screener that I can secretly oversee and control (somewhat).

Many people apparently recommend AIMP for this: play.google.com/store/apps/d...

You could just get an mp3 playing app that has an option to order your music by "songs," and then descending by "most frequently played," if you were interested in filling that gap.

Whereas if you're unpretentious, you're like Hydrox cookies, which are 10x better than Oreos and were unjustly robbed of the market that they originally DOMINATED. And now you can only get a package for $75.

Be a $75 cookie.

ur like an off brand saltine cracker

That's because half of us are TRYING to be accepted by the mainstream, a quarter of us are just trying to be more ethical and moral not matter what the appearance is, and a quarter of us are shrieking like banshees while clinging to the vestiges of our traditions.

SIFT for AI: Introduction and Pedagogy Once I thought more deeply about what people had been asking for it made a lot of sense

I will link both of these below.

Both of these resources (all three, including Mike's stuff) will be discussed in my webinar tomorrow, "Personal Learning with AI" (it is, indeed possible to use AI for personalized learning--if you use it responsibly and in an AI literate way!)

If you all want to practice @mikecaulfield.bsky.social's Three Steps for AI-Enhanced Research, and the #SIFTMethod, there are two resources that I can recommend:

1. Search Research blog by Dan Russell

2. The Bellingcat challenge site

Simply read the contact and review information, test out any of the several versions of the prompt/bot, and then email me or use the rubric or another method for giving feedback.

Hello all! Do you remember the Pedagogical Promptbook? Well, now I am looking for learners of all ages and types to test out the Project-Based Learning custom bot OR the actual prompt in whatever AI tool they wish.

Climb to the sun.
Your frozen boughs
Shimmer across the sky.

Your work is done.
Decades digging roots
Deep
In unforgiving soil.

Shine on, wild one.
Your legacy:
A forest
Of grit and grace.

If the purpose of education is to prepare learners to apply skills and knowledge outside the classroom, then the tools and processes we learn and focus on should be those that are ACTUALLY USED outside the classroom, i.e. in the workplace.

My slides for the hashtag#AISummit keynote can be found below. I had a marvelous time discussing the importance of not only teaching students about AI, but also teaching them how to use it IN THE WORKPLACE.

Preparing for the small-"s" singularities This presentation has been given three times with varying success. It attempts to simulate a dialogue between professionals, practitioners, and academics about applications of generative AI. It is evi...

I had an absolutely enlightening experience at the Online Learning Consortium Accelerate 2025 Conference! It paired perfectly with the Association for Educational Communications & Technology (AECT) 2025 International Convention that I went to in October.
