I wrote about the fantasy that we can teach children how to use AI responsibly in schools when the adults outside them are not.

I wonder if we shouldn't consider science at the edge of a new paradigm shift, now that it is no longer confined to human thought and rationality www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

As a journal editor, I agree 💯 with @catherinedevries.bsky.social. To me, the lit review is the single most important part of any paper. There are many ways to do one, and it is often hard to do well, but this essay gives some excellent advice: catherineeunicedevries.substack.com/p/most-liter...

Alistair Bunkall "For the third day in a row dozens of Palestinians were shot dead as they went to get food" Israels aid distribution isn't about helping Palestinians survive. Its about keeping them in a permanent state of starvation, controlling them, moving them & killing them

For the third time in three days, scores of starving Palestinians have been unlawfully killed or maimed in southern Gaza en route to food distribution sites established by Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Statement on the need for thorough and independent international investigation and accountability

I had the great pleasure of talking with @neilselwyn.bsky.social about some of my research on AI and the future of higher education. Podcast at this link 👇

“Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate…Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate and having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”

I want to give credit to Metz/Weise here for stating plainly that LLMs cannot decide that something is or isn't true or false. Stating the actual, real limitations of these models is necessary, and it's good to finally see this happening in the mainstream media without any throat clearing

#Blackmirror is happening

By Sean Carrol, the president of ANERA: "Israel is now openly exploiting aid as a tool of war; senior Israeli officials have declared what effectively is the intent to use starvation as a tactic to pressure Hamas to release the remaining hostages — a clear violation of international law."

This is so, so bleak, but I thought this part was actually kind of poignant: people are searching for meaning in a world that has sought to eliminate all the spaces where they can learn and discuss big questions. This is what you end up with. www.rollingstone.com/culture/cult...

A world historical crime, taking place in full view, with the perpetrators so convinced of their impunity that they can brag about genocidal intent, and it’s hard not to agree with their calculation that no one will stop them and no one will be held accountable

Some may choose to ignore the crimes committed by Israel in Gaza, but they won't be able to normalise them www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"systems designed in the name of efficiency, calculability, predictability and control are, and will always be, anti-democratic and inhumane"

The scary targeting of activists and migrant rights defenders continues. Also David Yambio, co-founder of @refugeesinlibya.bsky.social and close friend and ally, was targeted in a spyware attack. All solidarity with you @davidyambio.bsky.social!! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

What the...? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This shows such a limited understanding of what humans can do and be. Technology will never replace empathy, critical thinking and the ability to deal with the unforeseen

We forget that behind the selection of content published on social media there are real people, often underpaid, who do the job of watching what we will not. Another form of exploitation, oppression and colonialism. www.theguardian.com/media/2024/d...
