I just came across an excellent take on job perspectives in the era of #GenerativeAI by Adrien Book (@thepourquoipas; thanks to Andrew Woolridge @triptych for posting).

Adrien knows what he is talking about, he looks at specific careers and shows specific ways in which they may be disrupted - but most importantly, he develops a brief, concrete perspective for each, on how to respond. My redux of his advice: (a) emphasize the authentic human experience, and (b) make the AI work with you, not for you. This resonates completely with what we have been writing in the Sentient Syllabus Project.

Good article, one of the best I have seen on the topic (and I have seen a lot .)

Although - Adrien! There's no free lunch yet for grading. "Bastille day" is indeed the anniversary of the storming of the Bastille, and the French national holiday. This would have lead to a rather embarrassing (and successful) remarking request. How to use generative AI in grading / marking is an unsolved question. We only know that we must use it, because the detailed assessment of generated essays does not scale.
