For someone who was apparently cancelled, John Boyne is bloody everywhere. Why are people holding him up as some great author. This is the guy who wrote the Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, then threw a huge tantrum when the Holocaust Memorial Museum said the book should be avoided.

A lawyer who submitted fake AI-hallucinated cases responded to an OSC re sanctions. The response itself (first pic below) included more erroneous citations and was written in a style that caused the court to suspect he didn't write it. Now, about a month later, he's at it again!

I have worked so hard to learn so much of the layout of Leeds, and I've been lucky enough to work with the most amazing cane travel instructor who has enabled me to do so. Starting from scratch in a new place is stressing me out, even though I know it will be great in the end.

To clarify I mean anything wrong re my case. He obviously did a lot wrong in other situations.

Such a crap situation all round. He took on a case of mine when I was a young student. It never went anywhere, and I didn't have the knowledge at the time to push for better. I wouldn't feel confident saying he did anything wrong, but I'm also not surprised by this.

@MartinSigsworth Thanks. I'm currently looking for somewhere to live, and then I will move down there. I agree that sorting mobility is stressful, I really hope I'll be able to get it quickly.

@ConnorScottG I did a move from Leeds to London about 14 years ago with about 2 weeks notice so happy to try and help. Most obviously sorting a place to live was the biggest chew and sorting mobility support

I don't post on here very often anymore, however, I've just accepted a job that will mean moving all the way from Leeds to Sussex! If anyone has advice about literally anything, I would love to hear it!

I've literally seen this in a train travel FB group, where if Chatgpt can't tell them which train to get they are stuck, when all of the information they need exists online. They just need to read it and think.

Not just young people though. So many seem to be comfortable with the idea that they can outsource everything to Chatgpt or similar, and are refusing to use their own brain.

I sadly think this is true. Obviously there are still lots of wonderful, engaging young people. However I am seeing many students who lack even basic problem-solving skills because they aren't curious or motivated enough to try.

“They have no curiosity about the world. Just eat, sleep, phone.” I’m hearing this from every teacher I know. The scariest thing about AI is that it’s creating a generation of students with no interests, no hobbies, who are totally dependent on tech. What’s to be done?

I just finished reading The Lie that Binds Them by @thetowerofstars An amazing ending to another great series by this author, even if the ending made me tear up a bit. Available as audio books for those who prefer them, though I think you should read the Legacy Trilogy first.
