WalopCurrently we are seeing a flood of generated text, images and video of questionable quality and obvious glitches.
Then there's this quote from Brian Eno I've seen floating around recently:
"Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them."
This would imply the quality and errors of these early days of generative content will be a nostalgic and sought after aestetic in a decade or two. Like the scratching of vinyl or fuzziness of a VHS is today.

Ch M[ae][iy]e?r 🇪🇺 🤍 🇬🇱@goodthinkhunting die großen Schulbuchverlage haben die gesamte Digitalisierung noch nicht verstanden und versuchen noch, ihr viele Jahre altes Geschäftsmodell aufrecht zu erhalten.
Es ist wie mit Brockhaus vs. Wikipedia.
Die Zukunft der Bildung liegt in der Verantwortung der Ministerien und Lehrkräfte, nicht bei den Schulbuchverlagen. Es wird sich da noch sehr Vieles ändern (müssen).
Es hängt alles miteinander zusammen und wird ziemlich spannend:

Manchmal frage ich mich, wo hier unsere Bildungsziele zu verorten sind und was die Rolle von Schule ist.
Stéphane Deschamps> Until a couple of years ago, the browsers did not treat generated content as “real” content. They did not expose it to #AssistiveTechnologies like #ScreenReaders.
[…]
For visual users, the link text “Get the Report (PDF)” would have been clear. But “(PDF)” was not conveyed to screen readers and other assistive technologies […] so browsers started to treat #GeneratedContent as actual content.
