Did an AI write Blink 182 song lyrics? Dolly Parton, seems to be the real deal :)
Great video by @DrLyndonWalker demonstrating how to use AI detectors and what we should keep in mind when interpreting results.

I'm exploring AI and GPT tools every single day atm.
And every single day I experience a jaw-dropping moment where I just can't believe what I'm witnessing.

Meet Zara... my Artificial Intelligence Teaching Assistant :)
Now featured in my undergraduate-level Freelancing & Small Business class.
Using AI for video teaching content to help guide students through the materials.
The idea is to create these videos (images are AI-generated, the initial script is GPT-3 generated which I edit) to augment my online teaching materials.
If you're interested in watching (<5 mins each), here are the first two videos:

I'm not 100% sure how this will go, but having fun :)

Should You Quit Your Academic Job?
I asked an AI Writer for advice. Here's what it said 👇

Spending the day playing with WordPlay.ai
1600-word essay generated in <30 seconds 🤯
The result = pretty good!
Has my role as a writer been reduced to fact-checking, performing a Grammarly check, and adding a little flavour to the text?
Seriously questioning what the future of writing looks like at this point.
Also, reflecting on the equity of these tools in higher education. There is a fee involved in using the tools. It's not that high, but it means that students with $$$ are once again at an advantage.
Will HE providers of the future purchase enterprise subscriptions to level the playing field so that all students have access?
So many questions!!!

Hello STEM Teachers,
Classroom Activity Videos - Hot off the press!!!
40 x STEM activity videos, each mapped to the Australian/Vic curriculum.
They are seriously cute! Very entertaining! And presented by two talented teachers.
Check them out 👉https://www.youtube.com/@PrimaryAndSTEM
All FREE. Part of a Swinburne Uni and Invergowrie Foundation STEM project initiative.
Each video has a detailed lesson plan (available at https://primaryandstem.online - under the 'Resources' menu)
It's been fun to be part of this project - to bring the lesson plan pdf resources to life, and build out the website :) The videos are filmed by my talented friend - DM me if you need talented videography for your education projects :)

Wrote a 2200-word blog post today!
How?
Easy 👇
1. Used Jasper.ai to sketch an outline and built the skeleton of the article.
2. Added additional content from additional desk research, notes from my second brain in Obsidian and following up on ideas raised by Jasper.
3. Rewrote the whole thing in my own words.
4. Optimised the text for SEO / Google search results
5. Uploaded to WordPress and published 🥳
My takeaway:
I strongly believe we should be teaching students how to use technology to write rather than penalising them for working with tools commonly used in industry.
You still need foundational knowledge to create, evaluate, and craft writing, even if you initially use AI to create it.

A company in the UK has monetized a cocktail of Shut Up and Write, Cal Newport's Deep Work, and ADHD body doubling. Interesting 🤔
Has anyone tried this product: https://flown.com/
