Some takeaways: DON’T USE AI DETECTION SOFTWARE; “traditional” writing rubrics already spotlight AI’s generic, unsubstantiated writing; give students opportunities to talk about and revise their writing; teach them how to use AI strategically and effectively.

Once again begging faculty to not enter into romantic attachments with the people they are paid to instruct 🙏🏾

I want to explain something, for the sake of the profession of philosophy, the field of academia, and the health of workplace gender relations more broadly:
