Author: REBEL OF THE REGENCY; Podcast: VULGAR HISTORY
pinned post!
REBEL OF THE REGENCY is an irreverent AND impeccably researched biography of a forgotten woman from British history: Caroline of Brunswick, wife to The Regent (of “Regency Era” fame). It got a PW star review and was featured in WaPo before they stopped covering books!

The entire reason AI is being deployed in schools is to funnel money out of schools and into tech companies. Whatever reasons you've convinced yourself that AI edtech is necessary, regardless of how "useful" you think it is, it's sole purpose is to pad the pockets of the wealthy.

Vital thread for historians, other researchers who use digitized historical archives, and teachers. AI is altering docs via transcript and summary, and it’s radically changing them in dangerous ways:

"But AI can transcribe quickly for me!" The lack of time for transcription in the archives is not natural, it is created. The time to transcribe, which is also time to read and think about material, has been taken from us by those with the power to fund our work. Now they want it without funding it.
