A decade (!) ago, I enthusiastically stayed up to post poll results on here at midnight. I am no longer that person, and am unreliable past 10. 😐 Sign-up for our mailing list, so you get the release in your inbox: politics.umbc.edu

Just the occasional reminder that before long we are going to regret allowing students to offload their schoolwork to AI and that, until we wise up, we're setting up a generation of students to be unable to brainstorm, reason, write, or edit for themselves.

“We believe the world should accept some bad things happening for the benefits of this technology.” In a conversation for the first edition of Decoded, a new daily newsletter and podcast, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman talked with POLITICO’s @BrendanBordelon about trade-offs, AI safety, and how his company is different from Anthropic.

I have an essay running over at @thedispatch. I discuss how Nikole Hannah-Jones' regret about her daughter's education is similar to the "Woke 1 was crazy!" conversation. Indeed, there's a lot to regret from the last decade. thedispatch.com/article/extr…
