Beets are delicious. But what is their relationship to peppers in your mind?

Bell peppers are crunchy water, but not in a good way. Blech.

I only accept from students once they’ve graduated and only if I know them. Although for no very strong reasons, I suppose.

Fortunately, this is a very small percentage of my wonderful students. And I’m mainly frustrated that this is the last assignment, so I don’t have time to make them actually do the assignment instead of just failing it. But… yeesh.

True, I’m the ridiculous one who know that’s not what the information desk in the museum lobby looks like, but why fill this much-photographed space with entirely imaginary artworks?!?

But it’s definitely on AI that it’s using angles that would work only if the selfie was taken by someone hovering ten feet off the ground. Or that it gets that there are exhibition banners on the Met’s facade but misses that the text on them should be readable in some language, ideally English.

To be fair, there is user error involved. Like for example forgetting to remove the Gemini watermark from the corner of the image. Or giving ChatGPT a mirror selfie shot to work with, forgetting there are no such convenient mirrors in the 19th Century Painting Galleries.

Also: now I want to visit the Alamo!

It’s both protest and joy - and a demonstration of the value of doing public history.

Agreed!!!

He did serve time and authorities confiscated what he had on his arrest… but sadly most of what he had already sold remains in foreign collections

Thank you!
