Das Schimpfwort zum 12. Februar: Schloddermatant und Schloddermichel

Eine Schlodderei ist eine Nachlässigkeit, eine Schlamperei. Die "Schloddermatant" ist eine nachlässige Frau, denn "ma tante" heisst auf Französisch: meine Tante. Eigentlich sagt das Schimpfwort: Du Schlampentante.

Die männliche Form ist der "Schloddermichel" - ein nachlässiger Kerl, ein Herumtreiber.

This is the most coherent version of the argument I've been trying to have with @TedUnderwood today. The TL;DR version is: "What social benefits will we deny people if LLMs are delayed in their mainstream adoption for a bit? Shouldn’t there be at least some affirmative duty to make that case before we push this out to most of humanity like a software patch?"

Very critical point that many educators are missing.

AI Tools are part of our future, we cannot ignore them, instead we need to learn to use/incorporate them into our curriculum. Just like slide rules, calculators, and laptops.

The critical piece is the prompt, have your students show the prompts, it will indicate if they have learned enough of the domain space to be able to ask the right questions and demonstrate if the can determine if the AI is lying

Gotta admit that my first reaction to ChatGPT as a college instructor was a mixture of fascination & dread. Now I am encouraging my journalism students to use and interrogate AI services as part of their education. Here's why:

Lipstick on an amoral Chatbot pig

In hindsight, ChatGPT may come to be seen as the greatest publicity stunt in AI history, an intoxicating glimpse at a future that may actually take years to realize—kind of like a 2012-vintage driverless car demo, but this time with a foretaste of an ethical guardrail that will take years to perfect.

Und ich dachte, wir sind inzwischen weiter in #theLÄND.

Hättet ihr vor 25 Jahren auch die automatische Rechtschreibkorrektur in Word verboten?

#facepalm habe ich Follower von der @unituebingen, die das kommentieren wollen?

Kann jemand vom #FediCampus einschätzen, ob das (perspektivisch?) auch für *Hoch*schulen relevant ist?

Microsoft has always had a great philosophy around accessibility and introduced me to the idea of temporary disability. It’s a great way to broaden one’s perspective on how much impact making your product more accessible has.

Being “data driven” is like teens talking about sex. Everyone says they are doing it, the majority don’t know what it means, and everyone is exaggerating massively.
