"Here is one surefire way to poke the academic beehive: 1) Declare that artificial intelligence can already do research more capably than many professors. 2) Embed that claim in an essay that lays out nine additional theses — “The academic paper is a dead format walking”; “Much of the opposition to AI is status protection dressed up as principle” — equally guaranteed to provoke outrage. 3) Reveal in a second essay that the first essay was in fact written by AI."

"As a content designer and passionate writer, conversation design has been intriguing to me since its infancy. From the little blurbs Microsoft’s Clippy spat out, to how Spotify’s Wrapped campaign addressed users in a dialogue-mimicking way. To me, it’s fascinating how small tweaks in sentence structure and language can make words feel more two-way than one-way in an instant."

"AI literacy has quickly become a priority for organizations. Budgets are being allocated. Programs are being launched. Employees are being encouraged—sometimes required—to "learn AI." On the surface, this looks like progress. But if you look more closely, many of these efforts are built on the wrong foundation. They focus on tools, prompts, and features. They ignore the conditions required for competent use. And as a result, they are likely to produce activity—not capability."

After several years studying the usability of edtech for teachers, the research team at ISTE+ASCD turned its attention to students — examining how the technical and pedagogical design of digital tools shapes their learning experiences."

I opened the link, and before looking at the output, I did something I have started doing more often. I scrolled back through the prompt history."

"A big civil rights deadline that impacts schools and vendors will hit this month. Federal law has required accessibility for people with disabilities for decades, says Glenda Sims, chief information accessibility officer at Deque Systems, a company that specializes in digital accessibility. But two years ago, the federal government finally gave schools a way to measure whether their websites, mobile apps and digital content were accessible under law when it released a “final rule.”

"The world of work is changing fast. Careers no longer sit neatly within a single industry, city, or even country; they span disciplines, time zones, technologies, and cultures. If education is to prepare learners for this reality, it must shift from a narrow focus on content delivery to building the foundational skills that future careers demand."

"Marshall McLuhan (July 21, 1911 — December 31, 1980) was a Canadian philosopher, media theorist, and professor at the University of Toronto’s St. Michael’s College, where he studied the effect of mass media on behavior and thought. A modern intellectual who grappled with the effects of television, mass media, and communications on society. There are many meaningful ideas and quotes attributed to him, but the quote below is particularly relevant to our current AI discourse."

"If you work in L&D right now, there’s a good chance you’ve heard people asking the question: what happens when learners lean on AI too much?
It’s a fair worry: the weight of evidence from the last eighteen months has pointed in one direction: cognitive offloading — letting AI do the mental work so you don’t have to — appears to erode critical thinking, reduce engagement, and weaken retention. The message has been consistent and increasingly loud: limit AI use, or pay the price.
However, a new study just complicated that picture significantly — with important implications for how we design AI-supported learning."
