the system now needs Ai ... who are you to confront it?
Some kind of anarchist or anti-establishment warrior?
Educators don't affect the system, the system creates educators to support itself. It is one big Ai experiment since late 19th century
Educators not serving the system are criminal and enemies of the common good!

in reply to Prof. Emily M. Bender(she/her) • • •I don't know why you're so negative on this. Most people in the workplace drink alcohol. Some do it at lunchtime and during the working day, others just in evenings. It's an inevitable part of the world of work. If you're not day drinking, you're going to be left behind.
The job of schooling is to prepare people for this world, so you really should serve beer in the classroom. Now, I know you're going to say that excess alcohol consumption is linked to cognitive decline, but that's just the cost you have to accept for staying on top of the latest workforce trends. People straight out of school are going to be starting at companies where day drinking is just an accepted part of productive work and if they haven't already built a high alcohol tolerance then they're going to be left behind.
Face it, day drinking is inevitable.
Oh, sorry, you were talking about GenAI? I was thinking of something else.
