Last month, University of Wisconsin-Madison Chancellor Jennifer Mnookin approved a proposal to establish a College of Computing and Artificial Intelligence funded by private corporations and philanthropy. Mnookin said the move was a response to the inevitable creep of artificial intelligence into all disciplines of academia. Rather than reject AI, she envisioned a university that capitalized on this change by making artificial intelligence a "hub" connecting the humanities to computer science.
On the first day of my economics elective this spring, my professor said we would be expected to use NotebookLM to pass his class. He had lengthened the coding assignments so that they would be doable only with the help of AI. The reading assignments were longer, too: ten 40-page papers per week, which he asked us to feed into AI for a summary rather than read ourselves. When it came to lectures, he told us to simply upload the slides to AI and ask it to teach us whatever he failed to explain properly in class.
BLEAK. Bleak. I’d been paying attention to Columbia selling out its governance to the Trump admin, not so much its stance on AI.

Instead of watching Trump lie and ramble for an hour tonight, you should watch, listen, or read the latest Theory of Change episode in which @jeetheer.bsky.social and I discuss how tech oligarchs like Peter Thiel and Elon Musk are literally basing their politics on sci-fi novels.
Since everyone is (sigh) debating if writers benefit from reading books, I dissected a passage shared as “evidence” that non-readers can write great prose: countercraft.substack.com/p/what-not-r...

As a Muslim of Black and Asian descent with an Ethiopian girlfriend, this confluence of Ramadan, Abiy Tsom, Black History Month, and Lunar New Year is amazing to witness.

Billions of your tax dollars are going to Palantir — and the police state it's helping Trump build could soon be used against you.
I used to be addicted to Twitter. I posted up to 100x/day. It disrupted my life. I have been interviewed at least 65 times about Twitter and doomscrolling. I no longer post on Twitter because it wasn't worth it anymore. There are other journalists who never post there either. Everything is a choice.
The funny thing is, geese are incredibly tenacious, and even somebody who doesn’t know much about birds would know that.
There’s multiple videos of geese fighting bald eagles, and the eagles just kind of slinking away in defeat.
But metaphors, like a lot of things, are lost on this administration.
With Ocean Vuong, one might assume that his photography is the nepo baby of his writing, but this is genuinely a great show.
