“Let’s be clear: research itself isn’t dead. Inquiry, analysis, and synthesis still matter. What’s obsolete is the performance of research—the idea that we can measure intellectual engagement by forcing students to produce a 10-page document that AI can generate in an instant.” #EduSkyAi #TLSky

Tried the "Porto" Chrome Extension and imported my Twitter archive to Bluesky (hence the 1K posts on my timeline now!). So much is outdated or the links are broken, but it was an interesting experiment nonetheless.

We talk about the best AI...Ethan Mollick, Wharton School said, "But the real way to understand AI is to use it. A lot. For about 10 hours, just do stuff with AI that you do for work or fun. Poke it, prod it, ask it weird questions. See where it shines and where it stumbles." #tlsky #aiedu #edusky
