AI

The information war will be fought through chatbots.

The ability to build models to think through issues has remained the province of the few. Is that about to change? And what does that mean for the classroom?

In this thought-provoking video, Suborno Isaac Bari emphasizes the need for humans to maintain their creative edge in the face of rapidly advancing technology. He urges younger generations to resist the temptation of relying solely on AI and instead cultivate their unique talents, skills, and imagination. By doing so, individuals can create meaningful lives, pursue fulfilling careers, and avoid the emptiness of a life controlled by machines.

Musk's newest feature of Grok on Twitter is to let his AI remove women's and underage girl's clothing without their consent, right in a thread.

From health care and courts to classrooms and farms, AI became integrated in everyday life.

Using a lockdown browser is one stopgap measure to prevent AI agentic browsers from completing quizzes on a student's behalf.

Happy New Year! 🥳

I know it’s not crazy or anything…

I find myself both increasingly interested in learning activities that offer an experience free of AI but still very uninterested in banning any specific technologies or devices, or "going analog" in any kind of blanket way.

In a world where the future is uncertain, Dr. McMillan Cottom and Jason Reynolds offer a bold vision for change. By refusing to accept the status quo, we can create a more just and equitable future. Join the conversation and learn how to think critically about the future, challenge existing power structures, and create a world where humans are treated with dignity and respect. Get inspired by Dr. Cottom's idea of refusing to accept a world where humans are treated inhumanely. With the support of the Kresge Foundation, this conversation is a must-watch for anyone interested in shaping the future.

This year was A Big One for me.

Greetings from the last week of 2025.

An assortment of people I'm following and posts from the past....

I tested more than 200 ed tech tools in 2025, and collaborated with the education news site The 74 to choose 10 to recommend to teachers across the country. ...

Speculation is meeting reality

Counterpoint: These are papers submitted to journals and yet the researchers are citing papers they have not read. These are the same researchers who used to raid the endnotes of others and put unchecked and unread papers into their previous research sections. The number of researchers who don't actually read research regularly and don't read older research at all is being revealed to the public, and that's why people are shocked. Yes, making unethical behavior even easier is a big problem, but let's not pretend the subject of the sentence here is "ChatGPT".

This is exactly the kind of slippery slope that is not a fallacy with AI. As soon as I saw people citing fake papers, I could see how these fake citations would then be further cited by more people.. and Ben Williamson has just done the research to show one of his non-existent publications has been cited multiple times and exists on Google Scholar as a citation!! I know how I can stop this in my immediate vicinity, but I'm disappointed that so many unethical scholars exist (I will never ever do a "as cited by" again before reading the paper myself)
