Why exactly is it so obvious when someone is trying to pass off AI writing as their own? There are clear red flags like “quietly” and “load bearing” but there’s also something less tangible in the rhythm and construction that screams AI but is hard to precisely describe. I can tell when something is AI slop but I can’t always tell how I can tell.

Irish people are confident they can recognise disinformation when they encounter it. 8-in-10 of our young people say they are confident that they can - one of the highest figures in Europe. Let's hope they're right. 🇮🇪🤞 #InternationalFactCheckingDay europa.eu/eurobarometer/surv…

Research indicates that students who take notes by hand exhibit better memory retention than those who type on digital devices. The tactile process of writing engages cognitive functions that enhance understanding and recall. benjaminjameswaddell.com/wp-…
