Rethinking is thinking.
That’s my motto as the summer semester starts (orientations today). There will be a million more of these articles:
“Prompt Engineering”

“Overlords at the Easel”
The brilliant, prolific, and combative political cartoonist Ted Rall has been spreading warnings about the ways AI can and will rob artists of rights to – and earnings from – their work. This week: As a cartoonist of the early … Continue reading
Merry Xmas!
