Duolingo CEO says AI is a better teacher than humans—but schools will exist ‘because you still need childcare’ in c/fuck_ai@lemmy.world

The 1000 is an arbitrary number. I am not trying to take away your achievement. But just like this 5296, it’s 4 digits on a screen. Your learning journey and achievements belong in your self value, not a AI tool and greedy CEO. Break free and choose freedom

It's Breathtaking How Fast AI Is Screwing Up the Education System in c/technology@lemmy.world

Education and learning are two different things. School tests are to repeat back what has been educated to you. Meaningful learning tends to be internally motivated and AI is unlikely to fulfill that aspect.

Why do people keep getting confused by our map? in c/facepalm@lemmy.world

Was a designer. You would be surprised how many times people want something how they want it. You can tell them that it does not make sense/is not visually presented information/is simply not designed…they just want to tell you how they want it and your job is to execute it. They also tend to love it afterwards. They usually believe they know better or are so focused on admin/following a line they can’t see sense…or nonsense in this case.

You arnt old. And I also feel the same as you. I am becoming anti consumer. I hope as a last chance Gen x get to go out in a blaze. I am becoming more activist. We have been fighters all our lives. Time to use it for good.

If I had a magic internet/media button I know what it would be.

It would be a brand banish button. If I see an ad, I wanna just have a button to banish them from all my devices…forever. I already have a rule you poss me off with adverts …I defo won’t buy.

So much tech potential that just does not exist!

Anyone found a convenient way for music that’s not perpuating a subscription? I’m an iPhone user and do like my tunes in the car. I’m good for movies shows etc. Dropped them all ages ago.

I have this. Paid for these things through from cassette and VHS to cd/dvd then paying for streaming. I have paid over and over for some content. I hate subscriptions.

Anyone ever want to pirate for moralistic reasons? (lemm.ee)
 

I wanna listen to a particular song by an artist who has recently turned pretty nazi. As I generally use Spotify I now refuse to listen to his music in there, esp as it generates earnings. I kinda wanna pirate the music somehow…I’m not gonna as I’m not gonna down a song or two and then store it on my phone like it’s the year 2000. But short story is this me justifying piracy to myself.

I’ll start with something I would like to bring along. I am gonna make the effort to collate some good craft tutorial sites and forums. Shine a light on those who take the time to show others their creates and skills.

So what would you like to see? Or what could you bring?

How do you keep under consuming whilst also being frugal and away from big tech? (lemm.ee)
 

I am trying to consume less in my life and also spend a little less, because one of the few voices I have is spending and its better in my bank than a corps. I have been trying to either buy used, or buy better value items, and or avoid plastics etc.

I am stating to notice what can only describe as small barriers, I know its just inconvenience and habit but I am hoping for some suggestions that can help me overcome the hurdle.

As an example I have been trying to buy some new utensils, I would prefer nice ergonomic ones metal and wood. But when I try reviews there is so much sponsored/ click here to buy blogs. Its hard to find decent reviews, when tying to choose and under consume getting the right thing researching is an important step. Even then purchasing decent quality is dominated by big stores amazon/dept stores etc. I was looking at OXO good grips but they are still heavily plastic and they only have decent ranges in amazon or John Lewis. Its not about the utensils, its more the barriers inbetween. I have enjoyed these conveniences that have now trapped me in a way.

Another example when trying to buy used items, it is so hard to do this without marketplace.

Anyone else feeling this?
