My takeaway was: How are we not letting a history of situations that killed and maimed LOTS until we smartened up and added better safeties tell us that that we don't have to wait until AI kills and maims tons of ppl before we make it safe for the public?

I know (and am one of) a small group of educators who have been saying this and saying this.

For all the talk of "data-driven decision making" in/by schools, we sure are ignoring what the data says about why #AiIsTheProblem. #TechLiteracy #TLSky #EduSky #SchoolLibrarians

It also feels like it will soon serve as a case study on how AI can flood an information environment with garbage and make that environment useless if steps are not taken to remove the "fast" or "cheap" element, 'cause the "good" is going to be scant once the AI hose opens up.

The data from this OECD PISA report is damning.

"students who do not use AI outperform those who do, ... equivalent to being around one year of schooling ahead of their peers."

Graph showing students who never use AI scoring 505 on a "draft texts for writing assignments" task. As students use AI more, the score goes down, until students who use it daily score 480.

Yet another study showing that AI is bad for knowledge and bad for learning processes (without even getting into the many ways it's bad for the environment, morals, legality, etc. etc. etc.)

How long's it going to take for educators to get the message?

I can't bring myself to read this, but it would be absolutley amazing if it simply said:

"Explain all the damage AI does to minds, the information landscape, human dignity, and the environment."

And that was it.

It should be 0% surprising to learn that employers providing new productivity tools = work load INCREASES, not decreases. They're not going to pay for less work!

And Ts are already overworked & overscheduled.

...if any sourcing is provided, it's "According to this source" - except #AiIsTheProblem is (best-case) "summarizing" and doing an approximation of the original wording, based on statistical modelling for word sequences.

So even if #AiIsTheProblem sites a source that appears reliable...
