I've started a free substack themed on how AI will impact education. First post is up-a rundown of current AI detection software and why they are unreliable. Bigger question-why are we obsessed with catching students cheating? marcwatkins.substack.com/p/our-obsessio…

How it started | How it’s going: the sketchmap I made two weeks ago when I found out I was teaching the course, and the syllabus I gave to students today. Much meandering ahead! This and all my syllabi in full here spinweaveandcut.com/education-home/

Friends who write: What are you writing practices? Rituals? Behaviors? I promised myself more routine that didn’t include a 2 a.m. marathon (fruitful, but not good for my schedule/life/health). How do you get focused and in the groove?

Parents in academia (Academic Mom, PhD) how do you do it? In academia, we accept a job and move to a new place where we don’t have any support. What do you do when your daycare needs to close? How do you handle emergencies? 🧵

One of my students dropped by with a gift they made to thank me for last semester's teaching. So incredibly detailed and not just from an artistic perspective - she clearly listened intently to every lecture and tutorial and really personalised this. A real treasure...

Here's how I introduced generative AI to my students, along with several tools, potential use cases and an analogy that's probably pretty dumb, but it's what my very tired brain is capable of at this point. When AI brain chip Elon Musk? marcwatkins.substack.com/p/embracing-ge…

One of the most impressive feats of AI right now is how professional journalists can write entire articles about it by *only citing men*. 🫡 The perspectives on AI range from all the way from Altman to Musk!! 🫠nytimes.com/2023/06/11/tec…
