Cognitive automation for teachers poses the very same problems that cognitive automation poses for students. Astute observations here on how the cult of efficiency runs counter to just about everything we know about learning.

"New freedoms we can't even imagine today." Call me crazy but I'd settle for preserving and protecting the non-imaginary freedoms being eradicated today.

Hey everyone, OpenAI is launching "ChatGPT for Teachers" today. Do they remain committed to promoting a pedagogical vision that is at odds with our best understanding of how kids learn? But of course! ("Learning styles" is not a thing, I promise you)

“…ChatGPT’s dangerous answers don’t sound risky to a non-doctor. The chatbot always sounds confident and authoritative.”

The recent AI marketing blitz is selling a future that many reject. I collected quite a few examples in this post and left ample room for others to analyze the marketing tactics being used, including the Friend AI campaign and the backlash it caused. marcwatkins.substack.com/p/selling-ge...

AI and the Teaching of Writing, by Eric Hudson open.substack.com/pub/erichuds...

Alpha School, which promises to educate kids using an "AI tutor" in two hours a day, is a budding national empire and a darling of the Trump administration. According to some parents who spoke to @wired.com for this investigation, it's had nightmarish effects on their kids.

Alpha School, el model d'escola pilot estatunidenc sense docents i amb aprenentatge personalitzat per intel·ligència artificial sembla (qui ho havia de dir!) contraproduent en molts casos. www.wired.com/story/ai-tea...

At Alpha School's campus in Brownsville, Texas, three promises are written on the wall: "Love School. Learn 2x in 2 hrs. Learn Life Skills" In interviews with WIRED, some families who left the school say the reality wasn't what they expected. www.wired.com/story/ai-tea...

Me he bajado la nueva suite de Affinity (ahora es gratis, por si os interesa) para seguir probando alternativas a Adobe con un poco de miedo, ya que ahora es de Canva, y aunque toda la parte de GenIA se limita a la suscripción de pago, esta opción viene activada por defecto en Ajustes de Usuario:

Some teachers are using AI to grade and few are talking about it. Scantrons are one thing, but automating grading, feedback, and assessing written work with AI poses massive ethical challenges and should not become the default or go to choice in education. 👇 in comments

Beyond the many moral and ethical objections I raised about using AI to grade, here's a concrete one: AI grading will never be secure because of prompt injection. Simply hiding a phrase within an assignment is all it takes to bypass even the most advanced AI models.

I wrote an updated guide on which AIs to use right now, & some tips on how to use them (and how to avoid falling into some common traps) A lot has changed since I last wrote a guide like this in the spring, and AI has gotten much more useful as a result. open.substack.com/pub/oneusefu...

The f*cking AI 💩

Hasta el coño de la IA 💩

🔍 Google ha afegit a Chrome un botó d’ajuda amb els deures que, mitjançant Google Lens, llegia preguntes dins Entorns Virtuals d’Aprenentatge i suggeria respostes. 🏫 Docents i universitats se li han llançat a sobre i Google l’ha hagut de posar en pausa. #eduCat wapo.st/47OPRzL

"El meu fill va fer una pregunta que ChatGPT no sabia respondre". Valuosa reflexió de Dant Fitzpatrick al voltant de com els infants perceben la IA com una font omniscient i el repte d’ensenyar-los a conviure-hi amb pensament crític. #eduCat

Genuinely powerful words to live by.

💎🔁 Gemini ja permet compartir Gems (l'alternativa als GPTs especialitzats de ChatGPT). #eduCat

OpenAI has announced it is introducing new safety measures for ChatGPT after lawsuits accusing it of playing a role in several teen suicide cases. ChatGPT will now attempt to guess a user’s age, and might require users to share an ID. 🔗 www.404media.co/chatgpt-will...

Claude, "We all know among Sauron's many evils was that he ran Mordor using an Excel spreadsheet with multiple tabs. Show me the spreadsheet" It made 12 tabs "so bureaucratically complex that even the Eye of Sauron would need reading glasses to review it." Some very funny stuff. Creative, even.
