Sorry, that's less than 2% of students in those age ranges any given year. So like 0.03% of America are learning about dreyfus in a given year.

So 8th grade in NJ and AP Euro History are the opportunities to learn about the Dreyfus affair in the public education system.

So that's less than 2% of the American population at any given year that is learning about it now.

That's what I would have guessed. The majority of highschools don't even offer that class judging by the AP college board numbers.

That's really interesting to me, do you remember roughly when that was and which class it was taught to you?

For reference, my public education did not go into European history basically at all, and definitely not at the level of any particular person or event.

To be fair, I don't think most America had the opportunity to learn about Alfred Dreyfus.

I'm not convinced consciousness is a "thing" you can have or not. To me it feels like it's better described as a process.

Also didn't they slaughter horses en masse?

Am I supposed to know who that is?

What, if anything, would a living AI look like to you?

I don't see why they would care about mobs.

What, if anything, would it look like to have a model of cognition?

Should I know who that is?

None, who cares?

You're all good, I'm the one who came into your space. Last follow up and I'll be out of your hair. Is there a specific concern about what will be lost if they were to use AI?
I could think of possible answers to that, but I would appreciate getting exposed to voices on this outside my usual circle

Gotcha, sorry about that. I'm really just trying to learn more about your persective, not change your opinion.

What do you want your students to get out of the class that AI use would rob them of?

08.12.2025 18:37 ๐Ÿ‘ 0 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

What role do you want AI to play for your students? Where specifically do you want to make sure it is not being used?

Money is a claim on future resources. Need is a permit to claim future resources. Need flows opposite Money in every transaction. Expenses generate Need. Revenue costs Need. Need is the credit side of the ledger made manifest.

Need is a commodity and we should start charging for it.

I'm pretty sure this is an official saying that saying redistricting is supposed to favor sides. So now officially that's what they do, no?

I think there is something to be said about the fact that this forklift is now available 24/7. I don't have the Odyssey memorized, because written language obviated the need.
