Private profits almost always come at a public cost. The fact that these costs are often difficult to quantify doesn't make them any less real.

I haven't stopped thinking about this @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social essay since I read it earlier this week. www.hamiltonnolan.com/p/enshittifi...

Graduating high school before ChatGPT is like having a brain made of recovered steel from warships old enough to not have been weakened by atomic bomb isotopes.

Anthropic is actively pushing their product on teachers. Imagine the legal implications if teachers are unwittingly exposing private student data to the open web without parental consent. Not great, Claude!

I earnestly believe this is a case for child protective services. These are not fit parents. The AI aspect is vile; but the systemized grooming of teenagers as profit machines is child abuse.

Brilliantly put. It’s an honor to be quoted by you ❤️

Great thread. While the specific details are new - creepy sex-robot repurposed by a crypto company to be an AI vehicle for replacing labor and surveilling disadvantaged students, that's novel! – the basic shape of the story hits beats that'll be very familiar to anyone who follows EdTech.

Some people want to build a movement, others want to build a brand.

Just an extraordinary collection of sentences about Lindsey Graham from America's best newsletter-er, @rusty.todayintabs.com:

We talk a lot about the problem of “cognitive offloading” with LLMs, but not enough about the fact that all that cognitive labor is being offloaded onto other people. You may ask a machine to do the writing for you, but you still expect another human brain to make meaning of the resulting text.

So honored to be representing Schools Beyond Screens at next month’s @civicsoftech.bsky.social conference. Please join us on August 6th!

This is the most Missoula possible combination of jobs for an anti-data-center activist.

There’s an implicit contract between artists & audience that the artist will expend significantly more time & effort to create their art than the audience will expend to consume it. AI art flips that equation, which is part of why it feels inherently offensive.

Google Docs now actively encouraging users to plagiarize.

Did you know that Frank Wills, the security guard who foiled the Watergate break in, played himself in All the President’s Men? thecinemaholic.com/how-did-wate...

Missoula just killed a data center. Hometown pride. nbcmontana.com/news/local/c...
