Yeah Shane Jones really doesn’t seem to understand his job if he thinks being a politician involves making histrionic names for people. Dude. If you’re name calling you’re not being a politician; you’re being immature.

“Wilson said the situation highlighted the need to develop thorough and clear guidelines around AI use, especially when authors already heavily relied on tools like Photoshop and Grammarly.”

Classic false equivalence, ignoring that the AI in Grammarly and Photoshop are not the same as genAI art.

See Gio! See! This is why the government had to change the curriculum. This is all NCEA’s fault! ;)

Yeah. Typical Luxon not understanding that it isn’t productive wealth though. It doesn’t create jobs. It doesn’t aid the public. It doesn’t help grow NZ’s industries. It’s just wealth accrual and locking people out of home ownership by inflating prices for housing and land.

But that’s the problem with modern conservatism. Never think about the long term and always assume you will win every election.

It’s such a bad faith argument to put forward too. Rather than listen to what the public are saying they’re looking for excuses to ignore major public sentiment.
