Have yet to see a university establish, say, a center of AI skepticism. Would be, dare I say, innovative! Consumption is just assumed to be a given, and then the question becomes how best to consume.

’But there are other places where women are treated badly. Should they be bombed? Should Delhi, Islamabad and Dhaka be destroyed? Is it possible to bomb bigotry out of India? Can we bomb our way to a feminist paradise?’ - Arundhati Roy, Come September, 2002

NEW: Exactly one year since she was detained, an immigration judge has just ordered the release of Leqaa Kordia—the last Columbia protestor still in ICE detention. DHS has kept her despite a magistrate judge recommending her release & immigration judge already twice ordering so.

First, Trump admin said it detained Leqaa Kordia for an immigration violation. Then, because she participated in a pro-Palestine Columbia protest. Now they say she supports Hamas because she sent money to family in Palestine. It's been nearly a year:zeteo.com/p/why-has-this…

If genAI can "write a paper for you" then at baseline you had nothing to say in the first place. LLMs cannot create new knowledge. They poorly synthesize whats fed into them. Good luck passing peer review with plagiarized work that adds nothing to the discipline.

Some PhDoh's are still doing research like the original affluent society. Other PhA+'s have PERFECTED research with AI. Try out these *insane* Claude (Levi-Strauss) prompts and shortcut your way to a billion—yes, with a B!—dollars of research funding!!! (save this)
