A Lost Cause

Got involved in a genuinely interesting meeting this morning throwing around terms like 'AI Slop'. Realised I had a better understanding of the perils of misinformation in the media than any of my colleagues, which is particularly ironic since they are the ones who are facing years of dealing with this in the classroom (if schools don't turn a blind eye to the phenomenon and try and find ways of educating against it) and I'll soon be observing the war on ignorance from the sidelines.

I like to think that people of goodwill will find some way of dealing with the challenges ahead. But deep down I can't see any way of avoiding catastrophic defeat in the conflict.
