The state shift of the last year is that *Americans* are not suddenly vaccine hesitant, but the *government* is suddenly flooding the zone with *vaccine disinformation.* If you see the latter as an inevitable consequence of the former, I guess it’s easy to feel like there’s no point in fighting back

My CARL (Cocaine Above Replacement Leader) metric estimates clear that an additional 250 tons of Honduran cocaine entered the US under Juan Orlando Hernández. And I tell you where to get the best sopa de caraco in Crotona Park. All that and more in the next Silver Bulletin.

“F.D.A. Attributes 10 Children’s Deaths to Covid Vaccines, Without Evidence” see it’s easy, you just add it there at the end and you have an accurate, responsible headline.

I’m completely serious: someone should get Rachael Bedard on a podcast and ask her what she thinks about this
The NYT definitely made a choice not to add “without evidence” to this headline.

I know it’s really not the point, but this is a federal crime and here we have some of the most influential influencers on the planet (including one person with direct ties to the richest person in world) hyping it up for views.

/To be clear, I don’t think it should be a federal crime. But it is.

It's a worthwhile mission to (re)introduce tech skepticism to folks who have become (inexplicably) enthralled to AI* platforms and technologies.

Technologies are not neutral--they bring with them the worldviews of their inventors.

BREAKING: The majority of executives and upper management are totally talentless hacks.
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.

I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

This broadly tallies with my experience of teaching, and what colleagues have shared, over the last decade or so, though of course there are exceptions
An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

I think back of all of it is credentialism, the idea that the degree and the GPA are the point, the insistence on the shortest path to both for market reasons; at the upper end university is a Student Experience and at the lower end it certifies you for data entry. This corrodes the desire to learn.

And I don't know if the answer is: everyone is too traumatized to do work and we need to reinvent society. Or if it's more like: generations are losing their cognitive abilities and willpower due to destructive technologies. Or: we all have post-viral brain damage. Or: all of the above.

Admin are continually pressuring us to make the course "more accessible," by which they mean "devastatingly easy to complete," but it's not about access. Many students refuse to read or write in any capacity that isn't tech-aided, no matter how simple the assignment, no matter how process-based.

Universities are assembling larger and larger teams to deal with academic integrity issues--mostly focused on AI--while simultaneously holding AI "writing" contests, AI-themed events, "hey, come play with these fun tools!" The messages are so mixed, it's criminal. Because AI is bloated with money.
