Seems more promising than "there was an em dash it must be fake!" And yeah, I might not be able to remember every detail about the stuff I've written, owing to my moth-brained memory, but you risk me launching into a loving 6 hour presentation if you ask me questions about a scene or character.

Den bild som ges av skolans historia i kulturkanonutredningen är direkt felaktig. Dåligt.

Food for thought.

There is one more post to be written here, about how AI is now often an austerity technology, inserted into a human process to compensate for the fact that there is just not enough time and money, and many workers are expected to do more and more with less and less.

GenAI is extremely prone to hallucinate. If people use LLMs to ask questions they don’t know the answer to, how would they be able to spot a mistake? And now think what can happen if we implement these systems in areas where truth and detail matter e.g. investment decisions, stock market or medicine

One more debate - addressing a hugely important topic! Link in first comment

We’re often asked whether we’re optimistic or pessimistic about technologies. That’s the wrong question. If any of this matters, we need to stop seeing technology like the weather, to be merely forecasted, and instead see it like politics, to be collectively shaped.

Vi är en grupp som i torsdagens SvD pekar på riskerna med att utelämna skolan från den nationella AI-strategin. Redan tillgänglig här: www.svd.se/a/Pp6eKb/ai-...

"Any hope of an 'Intelligence Age' that would see the cure for cancer and the end of climate change is seeming less likely ... these companies are happy to settle for making us dependent on the products in our leisure time." www.thecut.com/article/woul...

I'd appreciate help circulating this survey, part of our overall work on neurodivergence. This one is on behalf of the graduate deans, to develop better supervision guidelines. You can help by boosting and circulating the link in your various networks 🙏 redcap.unisq.edu.au/surveys/?s=D...

Great start to the day with @neilselwyn.bsky.social problematizing AI in education and society. Can't wait until the new book hits stores. We need to make education AI a political issue, not getting distracted from how it's entangled with deeper structural issues and challenges to public education.

Uppskattar tydligheten och att det på SvD åtminstone fanns en redaktionell human-in-the-loop (eller at-the-end-of-the-loop). Hur ser framtidsutsikterna ut för översättare?

It's #AcWriMo — this blog post by @thesiswhisperer.bsky.social is a great place to begin: thesiswhisperer.com/2012/10/23/w.... Annotating papers and incorporating notes into Notion is essential to my writing process, so that's where I've started. How was your start this year? #AcademicSky

Interesting postdoc opportunity (in critical data studies) at Södertörn: www.sh.se/english/sode.... Deadline: Nov 25, 2025.

it's not good for kids to read books because it will prepare them for college, or for work, or for seminary, it's good for them in the moment because it helps them grow, in any number of unpredictable directions

People are losing faith in democracy’s ability to deliver social progress. But are democracies better than autocracies at promoting economic growth, alleviating poverty, and creating healthier, more educated, and more peaceful societies? On all counts, the answer is yes. muse.jhu.edu/pub/1/a...

Academic authors, here's a peek into the black box of journal publishing from an journal editor if you can bear it:

Inspired by @roberttalisse.bsky.social, I tried to find some of my old concert tickets the other day but haven't found the right box so far. One of my social media apps then reminded me of this, posted on this day 12 years ago. Cornell's voice and lyrics are dearly missed.

Braving myself for impact with this blog post: thesiswhisperer.com/2025/08/30/s...

Bluesky is for sure the (?) top platform for scientific chatter currently (with LinkedIn). But frankly, more engagement is needed here and transitioning from #academictwitter is part of broader fragmentation. And 🦋 is still incredibly US based, also for research. www.wired.com/story/bluesk...

Friday morning's pop-up message with data-for-training pre-selected. I prefer the typical "Claude and Coffee" welcome message. Opting out. #Claude

Democracies often fail to reverse authoritarian takeovers. "Autocratizing leaders have an inherent advantage over their democratic counterparts: They may simply break the rules to achieve rapid political change." muse.jhu.edu/pub/1/a...

Läsvärt ang. lärarutbildningsutredningen. Bitvis är debatten rejält polariserad just nu.🤦‍♂️ Lärarutbildningarna, lärarutbildningsprofessionen och inte minst läraryrket förtjänar bättre. #skola #lärarutbildning

Enjoyed this conversation between Adam Grant and Ed Helms. Might resonate at times with academia - applications for funding, rejection, peer-review, etc. - learning to deal with "a festival of failtures", "building calluses" and the importance of community: youtu.be/hYYNCYmlbVA?... #AcademicSky

This. When people throw around "evidence-based practices" and "science of ______," they aren't engaging in conversation or nuance. They aren't acknowledging complexity or, consequently, reality. These have become euphemisms for "My way or the highway" in education. And they're being weaponized.

As people in the northern hemisphere are beginning to return to work, I'm bumping a post about our new paper on #postdigital GenAI literacy that came out earlier this summer. Close to 4000 accesses on Springer already! Hope it can contribute to interesting discussions. 🌱 doi.org/10.1007/s424...

This. 👇 Only had positive experiences — some only a few exchanged emails, others grew into research collabs. I hope to send more such emails this coming semester.

I spent seven years writing a book on this and she just… said it in three succinct paragraphs to politico.
