How do universities justify signing multi million dollar deals with this company when it is nothing more than a thief and liar?

I pledge to block every single Youtube channel I see posting AI generated science or history slop. Not because the AI imagery is misleading trash--which it is--but because the content is vapid and dubious. Give me kids who's passion for science or history pays for their home any day.

Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers: ‘We don’t want to be the biggest band in the world. It’s just fun playing with our besties’ The Australian rock band are ‘legit now’ with their second album Glory. They talk about performing while underage, playing with Dave Grohl and the ‘girl band’ label

They are brilliant - if you’ve never listened do now! www.theguardian.com/music/2025/n...

ALWAYS! Stand up for trans rights now, because they're your rights too. Trans rights are human rights.

As an intellectual exercise it would just pass a first year military sociology course... just.

causing poverty - a primary outcome of criminal law - does not support victims of sexual violence. Expanding police powers has never in the history of patriarchy reduced, halted, nor prevented sexual violence. Increasing inequality in fact strongly correlates with higher rates of violence.

I’m yet to be convinced that they help learning, and frankly as they get more complex (I’ve seen them with more words than the actual assignment) it’s even worse.

Gee, if only we could actually enforce copyright and stop them stealing our creative output then we wouldn’t need this…

Maybe the thing that gives me a pulse-pounding throbbing headache is when I think of how techbros sold ChatGPT to universities as ‘revolutionizing’ higher education and our institutions just forked over money without even asking for actual evidence

Every week a new battery miracle, with the simplest use cases of all. But we're only allowed to talk about the chatbots that do your homework (but take longer and do worse) or write your code (but take longer and do worse). And it's not like for every tenth battery in use, someone kills themselves.

NSW Labor ignores own drugs summit advice by keeping sniffer dogs and strip-searches at festivals Police minister Yasmin Catley says high-visibility tactics remain important ‘investigative tools’ – even at music festivals trialling pill testing

It makes me egregiously angry that our elected officials can just choose to ignore the very best scientific research and that they can choose to continue to do harm to our society with impunity. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Out of all the real issues the opposition *should* be attacking the Gov on and they choose, checks the notes, a t-shirt. Sigh.

Unlock the Ending of A HOUSE OF DYNAMITE Academy Award winner Kathryn Bigelow’s latest film unravels the threads of a nuclear crisis.

the repost on this I just shared I completely agreed with, the last half of the movie had me repeatedly shouting at the screen - "you just wait to respond...!", . The single missile does not require immediate counter-strike (especially as there was no origin source). www.netflix.com/tudum/articl...

How does the US "have only 18 minutes to respond" if a single nuke is headed for a city that is irrelevant to our nuclear force???

18 min to try to stop that nuke sure, but our ability to retaliate would be exactly the same after the detonation.
