For college grads who “were employed, more than 40 percent held jobs that do not typically require college degrees, the highest level since 2020”

No. NO. NO NO NO.
This is very important to consider
I think “human” instruction has much to offer and in the end many students will be willing to pay a premium for non-AI education
Similar to how exclusive and expensive private elementary schools have abolished screens altogether
But who knows?
Unlike legislative term limits, justice term limits would likely have healthy downstream effects - specifically limiting the likelihood of the Court becoming ideologically lopsided (as it is now)
We show this in this USC law review paper

This is consistent with what we’ve found in our polling - term limits for Supreme Court justices are extremely popular and enjoy bipartisan popular suppprt
Dare I say it? With the right kind of elite alignment, it could even be “amendment-level” popular support (still unlikely)
seeing two different academic responses to AI in the classroom: 1) the below (go back to basics) vs. 2) incorporate it radically into a re-imagining of teaching
thoughts about how things will go?
I shifted almost everything in my fall course into in-class blue book evaluations, with no internet, and I’m glad I did
The students liked it as well
There is more to be done as AI advances but this is the way
The flip side - and there is a flip side! - is that writing longer term papers over a longer time frame really forces students to think more deeply and in a way that writing a short 90 min essay does not
However it is harder to see a path forward with longer-form writing in the age of AI
