Because I'm simultaneously a nerd and an egotist, I've used @goodreads to create stats on all of the books I read in 2023.

The year I discovered audiobooks.

Here's hoping I read a 5-star book in 2024 🤞

@DanWarren3000 I was in such a rush I still drank it. Wasn't too bad, just like drinking a fruity tea

[Dan Whittaker @DanW_TEE]

Just accidentally poured orange juice in my tea instead of milk😕

Today I’m joining my co-workers at @imperialcollege as we strike in response to the College management’s decision not to reopen pay negotiations, which currently proposes a real-terms 8% pay cut: https://t.co/xaJ4rUjpnH… #SupportTheStrike #ICLStrike @UCU @UniteTheUnion

There’s a lot of talk about using ChatGPT to write essays.

But can it be used to mark essays?

We've tested it & the answer is...yes & no!

Here’s a thread of our findings. For more, including details of a new project you can join, see our blog. https://t.co/xpVrR0oyea

This feels like a big moment.

I asked #ChatGPT to create the text for this tweet.

I imagine this is first of many occasions in my career, when I'll use ai to help with a task

@cocolibrarian @ConversationUS Can't help but feel the current conversation is focusing too much on the threats and not enough on the opportunities. The potential of these technologies is huge

https://t.co/IvbLwxH9AD This question is likely to become more of a concern in all areas of life. Is it fair for a student to use AI to help write an essay?

[Dan Whittaker @DanW_TEE]

I was recently invited on a fantasy football podcast to chat about my @CityLIS dissertation findings. The research focused on information behaviour in the online community. It was very enjoyable discussion https://t.co/9RSjt9D33J

New way to plagiarise just dropped!
