@actualham Thank you for sharing this article. It is a great read. I will share it with my also fatigued colleagues.

Best part is the finale:

"It seems we are past the point of slowing down integration. What we need now isn’t another class on how to use CoPilot but an institutional reflection on the emotional and mental cost of quickly advancing these tools in higher education. AI in academia is making a perfect cocktail for burnout, and we are already fatigued."
