The Week


I came home yesterday to salmon and caper quiche. I married well. 

I'm having some class discussions with students about AI this semester. I.e. what would Socrates and Callicles and Gorgias say about AI--in general and in education. The first discussion made me wonder--what if we think AI is better than us and so we defer to it. It could be a teacher who we can do no more than imitate, which is to say educational malpractice. (I'm increasingly thinking that the sign of a good teacher is that their students surpass them in wisdom and virtue and critique them.)
