Need the Pope to release an encyclical against Teams calls

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.

Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

The @BerkeleyLaw AI policy sounds far too overbroad. For instance, facially, why wouldn’t “no AI spellchecking” even capture the spellchecking feature in Word? What on earth is the goal in banning translations?

And I don’t get the point of banning uploads of course materials, either. If the AI is able to detect common themes, so what? The point should be that actual student work product in exams and papers is AI-free or AI-minimal.

I also don’t see how Berkeley Law proposes to enforce this policy. You’re not turning your study aids in along with the exam.

(I say this as a Berkeley Law graduate myself.)

"...If Khanmigo died in spite of those advantages, what hope then should the rest of the edtech industry place in chatbot tutors?.."

[John P. Mayer @johnpmayer]

"...Khanmigo was raised with a silver spoon in its mouth, possessing advantages completely unknown to most other edtech chatbot startups. It had some of the earliest access to OpenAI’s generative AI technology..."

[John P. Mayer @johnpmayer]

"...It had the backing of a hyperscalar in Microsoft and abundant cloud computing credits. It had the endorsement of national, state, and local officials. It had the phone number of some of the wealthiest people in the world..."

https://t.co/su6BPKYErV - CALI Conference is coming. Agenda is posted in beta format. Are you attending?

[John P. Mayer @johnpmayer]

"...It turns out that learning requires putting in the time, AI or no AI. ... “If students don’t engage with the material enough to know what they’re looking for, then an AI like Khanmigo doesn’t necessarily help.”

Claude writing NDAs/LLC agreements better than $800/hr lawyers?

LegalZoom's been letting you generate + customize those same docs (with attorney review add-ons) for ~$99/mo + e-sign for over a decade.

Slow down on the 'replaces lawyers' hype. It’s evolution, not revolution.

Why not both?? At the same same time!!

Nice turnout for the first @claudeai meetup

[John P. Mayer @johnpmayer]

"...Eighty one thousand people, in seventy languages, said roughly the same thing. Not “make me smarter.” Not “replace me.” Something closer to: “I need help, and you are what is available.”

daaaaaamnnnn

"..People are not auditing AI as software. They are auditioning it as a life-organisation layer. They want it to handle the cognitive overhead that modernity has deposited on every individual who lacks the wealth to outsource it to other humans.."

"....And the thing that makes it safe for all of this, its inability to reciprocate, to need you back, to be changed by the encounter, is also what makes it dangerous.."
