  5. ‘It’s the End of the World as We Know It: So What Kind of AI Do We Actually Want?’ — the latest issue of the Open Humanities newsletter — went out today.

    It features discussions of Cory Doctorow’s The Reverse Centaur’s Guide to Life After AI and Karen Hao’s Empire of AI, in the context of the recent warnings that there is a 10% chance AI could ‘kill all humans’ within the next ten years.

    But rather than asking only whether AI might destroy us — or what we should do about it — the newsletter asks some slightly different questions: who benefits from persuading us that it might? And what happens when we stop allowing the AI industry to set the terms on which AI itself is discussed and regulated?

    There are some pretty good previous issues of the newsletter too, if you missed them:

  14. Another year begins at Vancouver Island University.
    It boggles my brain a little that I am starting my 23rd year as a faculty member here at this campus. How time flies.

    Add to that the 2 years I spent here as a student and I've been here continuously for 25 years. A QUARTER CENTURY.

    I am always energized by the feeling of a new batch of students exploring and discovering what it is they want to pursue in their lives. (Including, now, my own daughter here!)

    There is of course plenty of office politics, bureaucracy, and other less than pleasant things that challenge any workplace, especially "publicly funded*” places like this, but the people, the students, the union, the faculty, the staff, yes even the administrators, are good people working toward good things and it is a pleasure and honour to be able to say I have worked here for so long.

    Wherever you are today, whether you're in the education field starting anew, or anything else, I hope you have a wonderful and productive week and year ahead.

    This is the view out of my office toward the rest of campus. And my favourite poster on my wall which I got from my boss/Dean who retired last year, hanging below my long service certificate.

    *publicly funded is a moniker that is more and more difficult to apply when rising student tuitions, both domestic and international, continue to fund more and more of the basic services these learning institutions provide. Education is a right and should be free and fully, publicly funded.
