By which I mean, many of us have been successfully conned into adopting a tool without being given a comprehensive picture of what that choice entails. For many of my students, who use AI to write a report more quickly, they haven't been asked whether that convenience is worth a rainforest dying

Mind boggling to see how far people will go before someone has the courage to say the emperor is not actually wearing any clothes. And the biggest fall first. Are they scared they'll lose out on the money grab? Or have we created a class of leaders who are feckless followers lacking a spine.
