Is this not just Pareto Principle?

Librarians were already doing this at scale in a process euphemistically called "weeding":

No NIMBYism on stolen land.

A similar true argument!

Ok boomer.

Make universities pay for this.

Useful for what?

How is it possible to build an accurate computer model to make this prediction?

A jury will probably decide the AI company's level of responsibility at trial. It is an open question til then!

How did taking it benefit other people?

They're customers.

Technically they aren't studying film! The article notes that the professors won't outright fail them, so these students just getting a degree without doing any work. Which in turn makes the degree credential a useless signal.

Art isn't for everybody.

"Information density" is not what works of art provide.

The low marginal cost also means that the job market is easier for software engineers in times when expectations are optimistic.

Kansas universities, like other colleges and universities, receive federal funding and student loans.

Faculty work products including syllabi and their research should be considered work-for-hire and owned by the public, since we pay their salaries.

If anything, it's maybe even more worth doing this in the age of LLMs since "nobody is going to read this" is probably no longer true!

LLMs are likely more attentive readers than most human beings and in a way a blog might achieve even greater reach by virtue of being read by an LLM and incorporated into its "understanding of the world." (Or whatever is the right metaphor.)

The cap is also a promise.

How often is the "news content" misrepresenting its sources?

AGI achieved internally.

Sounds profoundly anti-humanist.

This is a good way for these books to signal what they are like to their readership (bad).
