Always do. But the core issue is that policies communicate norms, and that norm is archaic and can undermine productivity. Our field needs to move on, move faster, and be more evidence-based.

By far the best use of ChatGPT for me thus far was trying to figure out the name of a band that I listened to 15 years ago. Here is my journey to remembering that I liked ONE particular album by Darren Hayes. chat.openai.com/share/41bab4b1…

I know academics like to say/write "utilize," but can we stop doing it? "Use" is perfectly fine 99.9% of the time. More syllables does not make for more compelling thinking/writing/speaking.

First candid post-tenure observation: Academics' common response to *any* politically salient/volatile situation is to write a letter, or append one's name a letter. I suspect that such actions are (on average) self-serving, ineffective, and create unproductive litmus tests.

Stephen Aguilar, associate professor with USC Rossier, recently went on ABCNews (@abc) to discuss the use of artificial intelligence for grading student work in schools. Watch the full interview and hear his insights on this emerging debate. youtu.pulse.ly/2sxcocez8d

A tough situation, and in my opinion an entirely avoidable one. We can't throw in emerging tech into classrooms and expect them to work, nor can we expect startups to fully understand the complexities of classroom instruction.

I recently earned tenure, and I've reflected on what that means as a first-generation Mexican American. There aren't too many of us in this position, which is a shame. rossier.usc.edu/news-insights/…
