I guess I still do but every day, it feels like the spying and the data siphoning, the attention economy and the forced adoption of generative AI crap takes a little bit more joy out of it. It gets harder and harder to find good tools. I&#39;m increasingly drawn back to low-tech making. At least Mastodon doesn&#39;t disappoint.

ML has been around for 50 years or more and has a lot of very useful applications. GenAI is a pretty new application of ML which is being hyped up as the solution to every possible problem. The main issues with GenAI are the massive energy and water usage and the theft of copyrighted works as training material. I&#39;m not a fan of GenAI but not all AI is bad. 2025-01-23T14:24:08Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqs8esndfatwfg5hlqsfjqm8c2p0fg8ww2gxq9mngxtt47r7f79zxlczyzv2vj4ezaht497dy4vj7aqgv65yztjdphgr55vlxhj4yfu9t9e76yseq2f Hey new fedi people: Mastodon isn&#39;t like those other apps. It&#39;s like going for a walk in the woods. First, start with being quiet. Take note of the plant witch in the moss covered hut. Click follow. Observe the gentle troll sleeping in a pile of leaves. Click follow. Say hello to the owl peering down at you from the oak tree. Click follow. Keep following until your feed is a calm forest stream flowing past lichen covered stones. Now you have reached the meadow. Take a nap. #fedimigration 2025-01-22T00:32:55Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsv26xeke7tz3znp3pdgj4fdha0jdq8v7pl3vvpeza8n66jqqwnlzgzyzv2vj4ezaht497dy4vj7aqgv65yztjdphgr55vlxhj4yfu9t9e760jkaps We need about 100 more studies like this one before we even begin to think about using generative AI in the classroom. <br/><br/>[quote]<br/>What is particularly noteworthy is that AI technologies such as ChatGPT may promote learners&#39; dependence on technology and potentially trigger “metacognitive laziness”<br/>[/quote]<br/><br/><a href="https://bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bjet.13544">https://bera-journals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bjet.13544</a><br/><br/>#ai #AiResearch #edtech 2025-01-21T20:28:55Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsg9gkkekg08lcrvh65vygzmj8p5ka6p29uh5csehd84rua3f9knmqzyzv2vj4ezaht497dy4vj7aqgv65yztjdphgr55vlxhj4yfu9t9e76slrgy0 Went for our traditional &#39;hike while everyone else is opening presents&#39; outing today and met this beautiful lady.
