I'm looking forward to joining a wonderful department and exciting research culture at @torontomet.bsky.social as well as continuing our many flourishing Australian-Canadian #digitalhumanities partnerships and activities!
I’m not at all surpised by the Jamir Nazir Commonwealth Prize / Granta fiasco (it was bound to happen at some point), but we should be deeply concerned that literary culture can no longer verify authorship through reading alone (no, AI detectors are not a solution).
