I've used this book for my Intro IR, but only as background reading so far - I love the chapters in this book, as they provide a different/creative spin on mostly traditional IR topics/questions, but I noticed that first years need to first know what this book is critical against...

I've seen this pop up a few times - academic.oup.com/edited-volum...

A blanket 'banning' students from using it is just practically impossible - how would you check and/or enforce how and to what extent your 300 students are/aren't using it?

Feels like an excerpt from Malcolm Bradbury's 'History Man' haha!

@jeremymosesnz.bsky.social apparently 'human dignity' is all over this book haha - reminds of your piece (brill.com/view/journal...)!

Ah tino pai Russell - congratulations!

It's done!

This is the least salient issue here, but these barriers also look nothing like timtams...?!

Could an explanation be that the most privileged people also see the least need to disclose such identity markers (see also pronouns)? I.e. those lower on the pay scale are also more likely to understand the intersectional importance of disclosing sex.or. and/or (dis)ability...? Just spitballing...

Perhaps @fr33palest1ne.bsky.social and/or @winterchristine.bsky.social could be of help...?

Gefeliciteerd Hilde!

I bet that if you'd ask GenAI to produce a movie about a US civil war, it would produce this movie - just acontextual imagery, content without meaning or takeaway. See also 'Warfare'. Watch 'Lee' if you want to watch a movie about war photography.

My colleagues and I tried to grapple with similar questions last year in this @gsqjournal.bsky.social Special Forum academic.oup.com/isagsq/artic....

Fair enough - I'd be in favour of those things in general, but I'm not sure shunning LLMs is the same as LLM-proof. Insofar we want to make our students LLM-proof (ie able to critique), I don't know if that happens with such kinds of assessment...

What does 'LLM-proof' mean? Because everyone agrees that unis should become 'LLM-proof' - the crux is what that means, which brings us back to square one...

If Peter Dutton himself losing his actual seat is not a message...
