🧠 Did you know 🧠 Manhattan Project scientists debated about whether it'd be too risky to continue if there was even a ***1 in 300,000 chance*** that a single nuke would burn the atmosphere?

They would rather lose WWII.

Meanwhile, in AI:

@IanYorston True for hammer, saw, power tools, DTP software (remember that and the monstrosities it was responsible for in the 1990s/2000s?) right the way through to LLMs and beyond. Universal truth.

Just published - the latest edition of the whatIF podcast! Muhammad, Sienna and Olivia talk about hashtag #students using #AI in their work at #university and in their first #jobs after graduating.

The use of LLMs in education is a hot topic for discussion right now - have a listen to see how students are embracing these powerful new tools in order to learn and perform better, and how aware they are of the need to use them responsibly and ethically.

@Scobleizer Bloody hell! Stoked to still be followed by you!

@BobHarrisonEdu The uk had a vibrant and diverse system of innovation in education from grass-roots through bodies like ASE, plus a range of publishers. The rot set in once exam boards and publishers integrated, leading to a race to the bottom. This is the outcome of the killing of innovation.

[Patrick Fullick @PatrickFullick]

@IanYorston Reminds me of examiner’s comment on an A-level student’s rat dissection many, many years ago (when such things were still part of biology practical exams): ‘This student’s rat looked as though it had been dissected with a hammer.’

So I took the view that the PCN was not enforceable and received demand letters from @DRPLtd. I think there's a reasonable argument that the letters amounted to harassment (contrary to the Prevention from Harassment Act 1997). https://t.co/epsgrhf1cu

If you receive a PCN from @APCOAUK or @ncpcarparks because you used an airport Drop-Off Zone (DOZ) and forgot to pay a £5 charge by midnight the next day, you may want to consider not paying it. Please don't rely on this as legal advice, but here's what happened to me. 🧵(Part 1)

@Charlesknight Crazy. A major disciplinary issue in terms of contractual relationships, data protection etc. How about if I work for a major plc and enter into contracts in their name from a personal email (and also, relevant) postal address? Non-enforceable!

@cjking711 @Tyler_Rongione And “popular” books by academics.

@rod_mallo I liked it for you (and me 😂).
