AI models are now ingesting scholarly content in an attempt to dispel their hallucinations. But another possibility looms: that AI will instead drag down scholarship into its muddy realm. A new essay on my newsletter: “AI Is Coming for Scholarship Next”
@ablerism Thanks! Sorry—I missed the earlier replies mentioning those two assignments. Some kind of “annotate a text” assignment (which sounds similar to the “critical edition” assignment, maybe?) is intriguing to me. I’ve had pretty good success assigning gobbets (I got the idea from a colleague who did her PhD in the UK), though those aren’t quite AI-proof. I like the dialogue idea, too!
