Access restricted by nationality, not geographic location, is a fun sub-plot in here for ppl interested in the growing number of ways digital stuff is being put behind differently shaped identity verification gates www.anthropic.com/news/fable-m...
Research confirms that the more skilled professionals like doctors and software engineers rely on AI, the more their skills degrade. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
“For now, roughly half of the university system’s ChatGPT licenses have been activated, suggesting that at the very least C.S.U. paid for tens of thousands of logins that have gone entirely unused.” This is the scandal in plain sight. Why is CSU paying for a product that is free?
University of Washington researchers planned to have preschool teachers wear cameras that would record everything they saw, including the children they were teaching, then use it to develop AI models. @evystadium.bsky.social has more. Story by @josephcox.bsky.social: www.404me…

South Africa recently became the first country to withdraw a national policy document after officials discovered the text was littered with fake research citations generated by AI https://restofworld.org/2026/government-ai-hallucinations-south-africa-deloitte/?utm_campaign=row…
Broken record here, but so many of these uses start with “how can we get people to use a chatbot” rather than “how do we solve a problem” or “how do we fill a need.” The “problem” according to the companies is that people aren’t using chatbots enough.
