I tried to listen to a book about an interesting topic by a seemingly well-liked author, but had to stop because the author was so mean and oddly detailed in the introductions of almost every *real* person featured in the book. āWhat awful thing will they say about this poor person?ā And I gave up.

UC Berkeley Law creates new AI policy that bans AI for "conceptualizing, outlining, drafting, revising, translating, or editing any work submitted for credit" or exams because "thinking remains the sine qua non of good lawyering (and of a quality legal education)." That's what I'm talking about.
