So kids, please don't rely on AI for your papers and projects. It makes stuff up. Its hallucinations are not even internally consistent. And by the time it's done, I'll have been "married" to more guys that Elizabeth Taylor!

I get why this seems great & on principle, I agree. I've seen the rampant phone addiction amongst kids & it's frankly jarring. And that's not even talking about the exploitation. But play that out - It would mean giving your ID to people notorious for dogshit infosec. It would be a nightmare!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't find a single word in here about protecting Canadian artists from having their work stolen by AI companies, or compensating them for that stolen work. Why is it that people who create Canadian culture don't deserve accountability or control?

Yeah, a reminder that I am aggressively anti Generative AI because I'm a consent educator. I know how consent works. And a world that says "You wrote a book? Cool, let me guzzle a lake's worth of water to steal that and repackage it" is a world I don't want to participate in.

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue

The Sask Party voted down Bill 606, giving transparency to the people of rural Saskatchewan on when their hospital is open or closed. This bill would save lives. We keep asking when the Sask Party will listen, after 18 years it’s clear they won’t. We deserve better.

Imagine talking about any other public service this way. Does the government keep public hospitals “afloat”? What about when it gave Marine Atlantic $169 million to support its operations in 24/25? The media does the bidding of those who want to private Canada Post when they adopt this framing.
