This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

prefer AI-generated answers to student questions over responses written by their fellow instructors
Hardly outperforming is it? Talk to me when it’s a real-world outperformance
AI shouldn’t practice law for the same reasons voting machines shouldn’t use touchscreens to write to a database: humans cannot see or audit the process between input and result.
Of course, just like voting machines, this won’t stop anyone
I mean, a human can audit the code. Paper voting can still be messed with. I would like an open source secure voting platform to try with other things for a few years first, just to see if they could get something reliable.
I agree but it's also a matter of education. The voting system and legal system should be reasonable (as in able to reasoned about) the plurality of people.
For the plurality of people I just saw I work on computers and that is descriptive enough for them to know they don't know enough to talk anymore in depth about my work lol
Bullshit machine better at bullshit than professor of bullshit.
