My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

Like most things, what we really need is a government services and tax regime that are adequate enough to provide a comfortable living for everyone instead of making every single choice dictated by impoverishment of parties who don't get lucky, especially in contexts where the number is fixed.

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself
Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.

The Sackler Family has murdered countless Americans and enslaved a magnitude more to opioids. They also haven't faced a single fucking consequence. Any politician who says they're being "tough on drugs" but doesn't make the Sacklers their number one target is straight-up lying to you.
