I say this as someone whose entire job is finding the narrow use cases in which AI is actually useful:
All the fear about AI, all the reluctance to adopt it, is entirely legitimate, and a product of the fact that it's been foisted on the public with no consideration of its negative externalities.

I continue to have no sympathy left for whinging about how the public are rude about AI and feel threatened by it when the biggest players in the AI space have spent years very vocally and constantly *threatening the public*

AI will not wait for us to catch up. It is already reshaping economies, societies, and classrooms. If we do not act, others will act, often with profit, not pedagogy, as their guiding principle. That is why our collective power as unions matters more than ever.

TAFE was sacrificed on the altar of neoliberal greed and ideology. Governments need to prosecute the shonks and increase TAFE funding.
