How Will AI Like ChatGPT Change Education for Our Children? These are some of the questions teachers, professors, and college deans have been asking themselves since November, when new technology called ChatGPT (short for chat generative pre-trained transformer, in case it ever comes up in a trivia game) debuted.
ChatGPT is a text-generating bot made by artificial intelligence lab Open AI, and it has quickly fascinated and terrified those who have tested it to see what it can do. Need a version of "The Star-Spangled Banner" written in the style of the Broadway musical Hamilton? Or a 500-word college essay explaining why a high school senior would want to attend the University of Pennsylvania?

WorkOp-ed: Republicans vow not to cut Medicare, Social Security benefits in debt ceiling talksThe moment to act is now, and Democrats\' failure to engage in meaningful dialogue about our unsustainable spending endangers the federal programs millions of America\'s seniors rely on now and benefits they expect in the future. For Washington Democrats to engage in politics as usual is manifesting the very crisis they claim they want to avoid. House Republicans are ready to negotiate in good faith. President Biden would do well to remember his past and do as he has done before: find a bipartisan, common-sense way to raise the debt ceiling and address Washington\'s spending habit.

WorkWorkOpinion: This 1965 killing remains an American tragedy | CNN Malcolm's death proved to be more than a tragedy, but also an enduring crime. The Shabazz family was deprived of a husband, father and now grandfather - and the world was robbed of a political leader who, at the time of his death, had been recognized internationally as Black America's prime minister. Malcolm X was a human rights activist who completed the hajj to Mecca, was greeted as El Hajj Malik El Shabazz by dignitaries, ambassadors and revolutionaries and who reveled in his belief that all people (including Whites who displayed political sincerity) could be part of the fundamental transformation the world required to flourish. WorkWorkOpinion: Ron DeSantis' new book offers a powerful warning to the US electorate | CNN Overall, I found the hectoring quality of DeSantis oppressive. He's a chilly man, with a heart of ice and â like so many politicians on both the right and left these days â full of resentments, grudges and the urge to destroy anyone who doesn't agree with him. The courage he claims for himself he would deny to many others. I shudder to think what he might do if handed the presidential bully pulpit.

WorkWorkThe Comforts of Pan-Fried Tofu and Red Curry PasteFor a nice break while your comforting chicken juk is simmering away in its pot, I recommend one of the exquisite short documentaries on Folkstreams. These independent films, hundreds of them and most under a half-hour, are about ordinary Americans living their lives. Each one is full of close observations and inspirations on topics like yodeling and Mardi Gras, although some of my favorites are the winsome adaptations of Grimms’ folk tales to American settings. The films, as the site says, “offer direct experience of unfamiliar worlds.” Sometimes that’s just what the doctor ordered.
