Me! I am one of those academics and you can be one too!
Researchers say they have their reasons for avoiding AI tools — and they’re sick of arguing about it.
MIT (endowment: $27B) shuttering three of its four main libraries is one of those news items that just knocks you off balance, auguring, as it does, profound and permanent changes to the entire institutional apparatus of higher education in this country.
✨“I’m not a hater based on vibes. I’m a hater based on facts.” ✨👏👏👏
academics trying to normalize acceptance of AI hallucinated citations in their field: do you seriously expect me to show my work and check my work
me, baffled, a naïf, a fool: yes that’s why it’s called *your* *work*
I am broken-hearted at the terrible news that my alma mater, @hampshirecollege.bsky.social, after 56 yrs, is closing. Its death is a victory for conformism, for corporatism, for higher education's dull love of hierarchy & status. It's a grievous defeat for imagination & experimentation.
Enormously looking forward to this event on April 21 at 6:30pm ET (online!) with the amazing @emilymbender.bsky.social
and @alexhanna.bsky.social talking about their new book, The AI Con.

I'm reading a university report that begins, "According to EAB," and I need the world to understand that this is like saying "According to Microsoft," to introduce your ideas about teaching and learning
DON'T DO THIS
This is absolute trash. Kids are submitting their original art for AP Studio Art classes. Claiming copyright over that work is genuinely evil.
I'm looking forward to our screening of @ghostdoc2026.bsky.social on Thursday, with discussion led by Macaulay undergrads. Still a few tickets left! openlab.macaulay.cuny.edu/cali-mhc/202...
NEW — My first true foray into AI haterdom is about how those of us not convinced by AI’s inevitability are a real constituency worthy of a voice.
Give it a read:
LinkedIn may be awash with boosters, but shunning AI is the human choice.
