This. The conversations are incredibly fraught. I hear this over and over
.. and also, the flip side. Anyone who finds it useful tends to find the need to keep it hush-hush on the fediverse. It's really preventing the "how do we steer" harm-avoiding conversations from happening. The net result is that only the careless touch the stuff. It’s not a good time.

Last weekend I was at #OggCamp , I didn't speak at the event myself this year but plenty of other people did! It was great to see some new faces, but most of all I appreciate this diverse and disparate set of people that I probably wouldn't see anywhere else, and the conversations we have when we come together.

Is it possible to achieve environmental justice without justice for laborers in the Global South? Can we apply Western notions of environmentalism to Latin America?

I really need to get better about muting threads that fuck up my mentions.

In classrooms and public events and private conversations, my campus regularly facilitates discussion (often heated) about the virtues and dangers of capitalism and Marxism and every economic theory you can think of, about human rights and AI and abortion access and data centers and civil wars and genocide and myriad other subjects of •extreme• controversy.
We do not, however, make space for and amplify people who believe the Earth is flat, because that would be a f***ing waste of time.

I really wanted to read a biography of the sons of William of Orange, as they are known as very innovative warlords. This book wasn't very good. The author is best known for writing musicals, a format that really doesn't work here. The made up conversations border on silly. Some historical accuracy is there. But you need to hunt for it.

One of the core problems of GenAI is that it's trained on junk data no one has ever read and reviewed. Once again we see that's a lesson not learned, because in their endless quest to more data for more-of-the-same models, GenAI companies have found a new source of mediocre training slop: work-related chats.

I am more against AI slop in chat channels than I am against space-based securities scams.
You wanna do a space-themed securities scam and pass laws that mean the whole pension market has to invest then, uh.. I prefer you don't but, whatever. You do you I guess.
Let me know your victim's address so I can warn them?
But if you want to put machine-generated slop in my chat channels?
Now you are affecting me personally.
Chat with the bot to interrogate your understanding if you want? Sure. There might be better ways like a text-book. but it's undeniably quick to identify where you disagree with the average.
To proffer your please-o-bot conversation as any evidence of anything, or to think it contributes to a public channel of real humans who are saying actual human things which are not synthesized by robots?
The revolution ain't built like that man. That isn't how you build human communication channels.
Keep your conversations with robots as private as your interactions with the VR Porn.
Talk with the robots if you must but nobody wants to hear about that or your dreams.

I spent 4 hours today talking to 2 graduate seminars, 1 in each official language. In both, we had wide-ranging conversations on evidence, methodology, theory, concepts, the literature, the discipline, publicly engaged scholarship, and more. The students were engaged, inquisitive, humane, and brilliant. This is why I wanted this job. A damn good day.
I've been wondering: will future historians have more public records to go through, or less? It's fascinating to read through letters and telegraphs of Albert Einstein, yet I wonder whether our digitized world will leave the same trace. While on the one hand public figures share a lot more personal information on the internet, which will always be preserved through articles, replies, screenshots etc., chat conversations, which somewhat replace letters, are encrypted, often with disappearing …
