This is horrible news. This program is a huge success, identifies brilliant scholars and gives them a transitional landing place that can help them land a tenure track job in the system. Itβs a win for students, their programs, and all the schools in the system. Why end it?

Playing politics with people lives is diabolical. I can't stop thinking about how many poor folks in the US are scrambling to find access to food.
Hating poor folks is not political ideology. It's just evil.

Let Them Eat Large Language Models: Artificial Intelligence and Austerity in the Neoliberal University
Martha Kenney and Martha Lincoln
Abstract
This article examines the expansion of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) into higher education. We argue that genAIβs incursion into university systems represents an effort by Silicon Valley to capture lucrative new markets for their products, as well as enhanced credibility by association. Drawing on our experience as faculty in the California State University (CSU) systemβthe first university system to contract with OpenAI to provide ChatGPT Edu system-wideβwe assess the rhetoric that justifies and legitimizes genAI contracts in higher education. We suggest that the uncritical adoption of genAI in higher education poses problems for labor conditions, the integrity of intellectual property, and student learning on campuses, particularly under the conditions of austerity that are commonly found in public universities.

Just a reminder that they stole Lamar Jacksonβs 3rd MVP from him last year because there was a narrative he had βso much more help than Josh Allen..ββ¦ Look at this Ravens team without him. Harbaughβs salary over last 8 season should be given to Lamar.

One curious thing on this site about speaking out against the encroachment of LLMs is that inevitably you get accused of being anti-tech. I donβt hate technology. Iβve used machine learning in my own code before. But I also recognize that oligarchs are so hellbent on pushing this tech for a reason.

Spending on AI Is at Epic Levels. Will It Ever Pay Off?
Tech companies are pouring hundreds of billions into data centers, taking on heavy debt, but current revenue is relatively tiny. Critics warn of a new dot-com bubble.
