lol thats not a bad idea!

I’m experiencing the same with my Black Feminist critical AI literacies course. But so many faculty members have said they wish they could take the course lolll

"Palantir. Neurodivergent. Fellowship."

"Hey kids! Wanna be a boot? 😃"

Plus: Not "neurodivergence" as if valuing qualities you hold. Not neurodiversity, as if seeking community (plus that icky "diverse" word). Not "ND Peoples'." Neurodivergent. Singular.

That is some shit-tier pandering guys. F-

Oooh I love hair nah! I forgot she had built a physical arcade

Thank you!

Hey folks, I’m seeking examples of Black women or femme artists who incorporate electronic textiles or other types of physical interactive electronic art into their practice. Thank you!

So important that European educator unions are getting together to agree ways forward on AI in both schools and HE - and especially that they are *not* partnering with big AI firms as the US teachers' union has done.

Hold on, nah -

Oooooooh appreciate the share! I’ve actually started making shifts in the focus on the piece so this might be really useful! Will email within the week

The Free Speech Crisis for Black Americans Is Worse Than You Think Don’t let Jimmy Kimmel’s return fool you: Black academics are more frightened of talking to the press than I’ve ever seen.

Since Charlie Kirk’s assassination, HBCUs received terroristic threats. Black students have been expelled or forced to withdraw. Black professors and teachers have been fired and placed on leave. A Black firefighter was placed on leave. A Black journalist was fired

These Startups Are Building Advanced AI Models Without Data Centers A new crowd-trained way to develop LLMs over the internet could shake up the AI industry with a giant 100 billion-parameter model later this year.

A screenshot from the article "The The Internet Doesn’t Exist in the Sky: Literacy, AI, and the Digital Middle Passage" by Mia Shaw, S. R. Toliver, and Tiera Tanksley. The screenshot shows two side-by-side images. The image on the left pictures a figure standing on a stage speaking to people. The figure is saying, "On this day, we come together to dream of technology anew. On this day, we force the Symbiote corporate organism out of our lands, out of our bodies. On this day, we break the chains of algorithmic oppression. Together." The image on the right pictures a Black teenage girl with her arms crossed over a shirt that reads, "Oh my Lorde". A speech bubble above the girl reads, "An interesting speech, Id say." The girl says, "Yea."

And then there's this amazing academic article/short fiction/comics piece, "The The Internet Doesn’t Exist in the Sky: Literacy, AI, and the Digital Middle Passage" by @miasshaw.bsky.social, @srtoliver.bsky.social, and @drtanksley.bsky.social.

DOJ Deletes Study Showing Domestic Terrorists Are Most Often Right Wing Following Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the Trump administration’s promise to go after the “radical left” a study showing most domestic terrosim is far-right was disappeared.

Since tomorrow is Labor Day and school is in session, I'd like to argue (again) that teaching about GenAI should include discussion of the extractive, exploitative labor conditions that make the technology possible. 🧵

Washington Post article: "For $65K a year, you can send your kid up an AI-driven private school. There are no teachers, and students study just two hours per day."

Ad for Elephant Learning, claiming kids can learn 1 year of math in 3 months

Ad for Miacademy Learning, promising "Learning at lightning speed."

Ad for Thinkster Learning, promising "confidence rebuilt in weeks" and "3X faster progress than old-school centers."

I've been tracking ads for learning aps for a couple of months now, and this claim that AI can help kids learn at super speed is one of the most prevalent and troubling claims. 1/

Read this 🧵 and then read - and teach! - Audrey Watters' analysis of the ed-tech imaginary, which "includes the stories we invent to explain the necessity of technology, the promises of technology; the stories we use to describe how we got here and where we are headed."

Read Watters' keynote at:

So many people film service workers with these damn glasses already.

Imagine whatever creepy man comes into your customer service job not only films you but can identify your name now??? Serious safety issue for women and others

#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/

I also owe you an email regarding Inroads, stay tuned lol
