AI BOOSTER BINGO The squares read: I might get attacked for saying this Imagine what it'll do in 5 years Al critics are just afraid Al is better than you Everyone is doing it "Levels the playing Field" Your time will be spent on work that MATTERS Your time will be spent correcting the Al's errors MORE VOLUME!! Shit outputs? Switch to [alternate LLM] Yes jobs will be cut... Humans aren't perfect either It's FUN!!! No practical advice "Sorry bluesky" Solution to chronic underfunding What if it could cure cancer??? I made something that appears passable No need for pesky underlings Is it accurate? No. But... Framing human work as "bespoke, hand-crafted" Get with it or get left behind!!!

INTRODUCING! Hannah Spencer The new Green MP for GORTON & DENTON Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

Introducing Hannah Spencer MP 💚

In her non-novelist capacity as, among other things, a columnist for the British magazine The Spectator, Shriver enjoys a reputation as a provocateur and a contrarian: economically conservative ("unenthusiastic about widespread dependency on the state," as she once put it) while progressive in her social views, though anti-"woke" and critical of the #MeToo movement. Her decision to briefly wear a sombrero at a writers' festival in 2016, to signal her disapproval of the then-faddish concept of "cultural appropriation," caused a stir in literary circles.

‘while progressive in her social views’? You’ve done it again: lied to everybody in the Atlantic. You’re not allowed to do that. It’s wrong to lie to everybody. Lionel Shriver is not ‘progressive in her social views’. Stop it. Stop lying.

This ruling is (obviously) confusing, brainless and cruel. And for universities this is even more confusing - if service users and employees can be treated differently, how does one cater to both staff and students? Any uni making a snap judgment here is gonna come unravelled
