Writing myself into being. Nerding out on social work, social interaction, EMCA, academia, miscellanies. RT by interest or amusement. The posh stuff is @ RG

This is my surprised face (note: not surprised). But it is so much easier to do wellness workshops than to actually deal with micromanagement, not enough staff, not enough paid leave, bloated middle management, myopic policies and lack of vision. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

What underpins this is the disdain shown for staff time. The time allocated for teaching activities is grossly underestimated. Time for research is doing it on your own time or being allocated minimal time. Whole sector runs on underestimates of time actually required for tasks

So often the huge dollar figures universities are stealing from staff are rightly the focus of wage theft reporting. But it's important to never lose sight of the immense individual costs to staff. Please read these courageous accounts in @theage. theage.com.au/business/workp…

New research on turn-taking by @JudithHoller, Stephen Levinson and yours truly examined the relationship between gaze direction, manual gestures and turn transitions in a richly annotated corpus of multimodal interaction. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/pdf/10.109…

This is what I've been grappling with when it comes to ChatGPT & the enthusiasm that many seem to have for it. It is exploitation plain & simple, questionable to use from an educational perspective & we're not questioning any of it. Just told we're Luddites if we're not for it.
Arvind Narayanan@random_walker

4 ways OpenAI appropriates labor & externalizes costs of ChatGPT: – authors of training data not compensated – workers in Kenya paid $1–$2/hr – those who identify failures not acknowledged/compensated – civil society, academia, regulators left scrambling to adapt/mitigate risks.

In a follow up tweet: And they toned this scene down so it could be broadcast. the original cut was too confronting and violently graphic.

@NicholasBromfi1 There's been some great studies of thesis examiners' processes. This piece is on the older side but has great insights on how experienced examiners assess (useful insights for PhD researchers as well as for those of us novice examiners) tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…

Hey #AcademicTwitter! I’ve accepted an invitation from a NZ uni to examine my first doctoral thesis. Any tips for young players to make this a positive experience for myself, the committee and ofc the student themselves?

Two things that students need to hear right away, and unequivocally. Enough of the “look to your left and right, two of you won’t finish” scaremongering.

Seen some academics puzzled as to why ChatGPT invents academic references and why its "database" stops at 2021. That's a fundamental misunderstanding of how it works. It's a language model, not a knowledge base. Produces "continuations" not "facts". We need a new AI literacy.

At the designers admission, DOTE is, to date, organized with according to how the designers work (this makes sense!). There is a stunning range of variations in how we all work though, and so if you have time, do check out the survey to throw in some pointers on how You work.
