While we might miss the chats at face-to-face CPD and BSTAI branch events, Twitter has definitely helped this year. This isn't a complete list of the amazing Irish Business teacher community, but it's a good start! Thanks to @GlenstalGirl and @kookychemist for the inspiration 1/2

Note how realistic the visuals and voices are.
This AI deepfake video of Catherine Connolly ‘withdrawing’ from presidential contest and that Friday’s poll is ‘cancelled’ is live and viral on Facebook tonight.
1000s watching, commenters believing it.
We knew this would happen.

Hadn't realised this was possible!

[Marc Watkins @Marc__Watkins]

Beyond the many moral and ethical objections I raised about using AI to grade, here's a concrete one: AI grading will never be secure because of prompt injection. Simply hiding a phrase within an assignment is all it takes to bypass even some of the most advanced AI models.

@TraleeESC @ClareEdCentre @NavanESC Great & very clear webinar @LCBusinessJC . Thanks Helena.

[Business Teacher @LCBusinessJC]

Really good article on the EU- US trade deal and what it means for Ireland. In the new #LCBusiness course students are required when researching to exam it from different perspectives and this would be an ideal stimulus piece for that.
