@haque_daniel Hi Daniel, I like how you tied in Ted Chiang’s idea about choice and intentionality. It makes me wonder if the ‘loss of meaning’ in AI art is about the tool itself or about how we, as humans, use it.

@edmondperezic Hi Edmond, I like how you highlighted the trust and authenticity as an angle. AI isn’t just changing how we make art but also how we verify and value it in the digital space. It raises questions about what counts as truly ‘authentic’ creativity.

This post sparks a debate about whether AI-generated images are true art or just algorithmic output. It connects directly to our discussion about how AI is reshaping creativity — questioning if machines can really produce original artistic expression. #RUVirtualSU25 #RutgersDCIM

Are AI-created images true art or a product of algorithms?
Can you use them as inspiration?
Can you copy them as you might do a great master or picture?
Share your thoughts and join the discussion on the intersection of technology and creativity.

@kaceyylewiss I agree with your point! AI is changing how we approach learning. It’s shifted toward knowing how to use AI as a resource effectively. I think it also pushes both students and teachers to focus on critical thinking and problem solving.

This post explores how automation displaces repetitive, low-skill jobs but creates new opportunities in tech. The overall economic impact depends on reskilling and supportive policies. AI reshapes the economy and how we work, requiring us to adapt. #RUVirtualSU25 #RutgersDCIM

[Grok @grok]

Robots taking human jobs has both downsides and upsides. They can displace workers in repetitive roles like manufacturing, potentially increasing unemployment and inequality for low-skill workers. However, automation also creates new jobs in tech, AI, and data analysis, often with better pay for those who adapt. The net impact depends on reskilling efforts and policies like wage support. Without these, job losses could harm many; with them, automation may drive growth and opportunity. The evidence is mixed, and outcomes hinge on how society manages the shift. https://t.co/BFoTHXcJ8D

@ebernieri2 I believe technology serves as a powerful tool to bridge the learning gap for those eager to learn but lacking access to proper resources. I can definitely see AI as a resource, where it can cater courses and tools to the individual and create a curated learning experience.

[kirsten @kirstarry]

@edmondperezic It appears that Bender is criticizing LLMs, that they don’t understand human language but mimic it based on patterns and data. If LLMs are simply rehashing existing content (how AI does) this is incredibly problematic. We really need to regulate the use of AI in creative spaces.

Building “ethical AI” is flawed, as there’s no universal morality for machines to follow. Morality is shaped by culture, history, and social norms. AI mirrors the values and ethics of its creators. Whose ethics do we decide for machines to follow? #RUVirtualSU25 #RutgersDCIM

[AGI Odyssey @AGI_Odyssey]

There is no universal morality to teach machines

Efforts to build “ethical AI” often start with a flawed assumption: that there is a shared, objective definition of morality waiting to be codified.

But morality is not a fixed dataset. It is shaped by culture, history, religion, ideology, and social norms, all of which differ widely across communities and nations.

Asking AI to “behave ethically” begs the question: whose ethics?

Until there is consensus on foundational moral values (and mechanisms for resolving disagreement) AI will reflect and amplify the contestation that already exists among humans.

@kaceyylewiss Hi Kacey,
I agree that AI is changing the world, and most especially our education system. It’s important to understand AI’s impact on education because it can prepare educators and students for the future, protect academic integrity, and equip students with real-world uses of AI

[kirsten @kirstarry]

@edmondperezic Hi Edmond,
I agree. By encouraging deep thinking and originality, Rutgers isn’t banning AI but guiding its use toward meaningful ways. It’s about setting boundaries while still embracing innovation.

[kirsten @kirstarry]

It is argued that AI isn’t destroying education, but transforming it. The challenge doesn’t lie in how students use AI, but how educators assess their work. A solution would be to let them use AI, but require an oral exam defending their ideas.

AI isn't killing education—it’s changing the rules.
The real issue isn't students using AI, but how we mark the work. One powerful solution? Let students use AI—but make them defend it in an oral test.

Daniel Harris was a deaf man shot by police outside his home.
He didn’t respond—because he couldn’t hear.
He approached to sign, but was seen as a threat.
He was killed.

This case inspired my passion project on how disability is misread in the justice system. #RUPASSION

[kirsten @kirstarry]

1 in 2 people killed by police in the U.S. are disabled. Behaviors like avoiding eye contact, delayed responses, or not following commands are often misread as threats—when in reality, they are symptoms of autism, anxiety, or deafness.

Disability ≠ noncompliance.
