I have long drawn inspiration from Austin Kleon and today was no exception. He's a fantastic curator and documenter of his sources of inspiration. In today's roundup of his week that had been, he linked to an article about Barnes & Noble's turnaround. While the piece had nothing to do with education, I suggest there are many parallels to explore - see: https://www.designedtoinspire.com/blog/parallels-between-education-and-barnes-nobles-turnaround/
Parallels Between Education and Barnes & Noble’s Turnaround? – Designed to Inspire

As I noted yesterday, we’re clearly at a point where we need to have serious conversations about the rules (and ethics) of using AI to support the production of what we deem our “original” output. Today, I came across a few attempts to not only seek out those efforts but to outright ban them. See: https://www.designedtoinspire.com/blog/ai-cat-and-mouse/

Thoughts on these efforts? Seems like a futile game of cat and mouse to me.

@Hoags agreed! A colleague sent along this link today that offers a host of alternatives to "blocking" AI - likely the knee-jerk reaction we're about to face. See: https://ditchthattextbook.com/ai
ChatGPT, Chatbots and Artificial Intelligence in Education

AI just stormed into the classroom with the emergence of ChatGPT. How do we teach now that it exists? How can we use it? Here are some ideas.FEATURED

Ditch That Textbook
Would you use this ChatGPT output? If so, how? Would you paraphrase it? Use it verbatim? How would you cite it? I often use technology to support the editing of my writing (e.g., Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, spell check, etc.), but we’re clearly at a point where we need to have serious conversations around the rules (and ethics) of using AI to support the production of what we deem our “original” output. Interesting times!

@jefflebow @davecormier I must say, this feels pretty close to the Google Reader days. Maybe (likely?) too geeky nerdy for the masses, but that’s the appeal 😆

Seeing a lot of spreadsheets going around with people to follow on #Mastodon, which is super cool, but y'all should check out and add yourselves to #Trunk, a site with a bunch of different lists which has been around on the fediverse basically forever: https://communitywiki.org/trunk 😄
