That matters, but accuracy is only one test. Each kind of answer requires a user to judge something different.

  11. Infantilization is something I'm thinking about a lot in connection with the bland, petty, simplistic streams forced on users by mainstream socmed. Everyone gets something different, yet always the same. Even posts that seem complex are written like a story, and generated by AI. In between the pervasive pressure to buy something, anything, the mind is dumbed down relentlessly.

  26. Education has repeatedly struggled with technologies that perform work students were previously expected to do unaided.

    Calculators, spell checkers, search engines and Wikipedia all produced versions of the same argument now surrounding generative AI.

    AI creates a much harder assessment problem—but trying to pretend the technology is not there seems increasingly unrealistic.

  36. We've done this before — computer, information, media, web, digital, data, algorithmic, now AI literacy. The bottle keeps changing. The questions underneath don't: who chooses, who benefits, what the system makes visible, who participates, what you need to understand before you can choose for yourself.
