Scott Pfitzinger“Our colleges [have] become dominated by Marxist Maniacs and lunatics.” Donald J. Trump, July 17, 2023“We need to … aggressively attack the universities in this country; the professors are the enemy.” J.D. Vance, November 2, 2021"Under Donald Trump, the federal government has mounted the most aggressive and sustained assault on American universities in our history, targeting not only the values of intellectual freedom but also the institutions that drive innovation and economic growth. This campaign will shape the battle for democracy and could have grave consequences for the nation’s future.""Trump has adopted a new strategy for stifling dissent, one that does not imprison thinkers, but instead economically starves the institutions in which they work."<a href="https://thefulcrum.us/democracy/trump-education-cuts" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://thefulcrum.us/democracy/trump-education-cuts</a><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#education</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/universities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#universities</a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/democracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#democracy</a>

Miguel Afonso Caetano"As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes more integrated into higher education, institutions find themselves balancing two competing imperatives: promoting data access that is open to all for collaboration to drive innovation and research, and protecting student privacy and institutional autonomy. While AI promises more personalization, predictive insights, and resource optimization for students and educators, its reliance on large-scale student data magnifies the risks of surveillance, discrimination, and educational technology (edtech) vendor overreach. The current higher education landscape demonstrates the diverse ways in which colleges and universities approach their students’ data in the age of AI, ranging from open-arms data sharing to risk-averse data hoarding. A third option—intentional, collaborative data governance—offers a way to harness AI’s potential while safeguarding the core values of higher education."<a href="https://www.newamerica.org/oti/briefs/new-trolley-problem/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.newamerica.org/oti/briefs/new-trolley-problem/</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/GenerativeAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Universities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Universities</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HigherEd</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DataProtection" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DataProtection</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/DataGovernance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DataGovernance</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Privacy</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Surveillance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Surveillance</a>

Miguel Afonso Caetano"This experience, of existential fear, that the community will be ripped apart, is not something Harvard is used to. And the parts of Harvard that are being wrecked do not deserve it; there won’t be layoffs in the economics or political science department, but among the people working on medical research or infant mortalityThat said, there is still broad confusion about the moral implications of what’s happening. Do we realize that the cruelty visited on us is cruelty we visited on mill towns all over America, many times over? When Larry Summers, once President of Harvard, lied to open up American markets to China, or helped destroy Russia, well, that was in our name, hurting people we would never know, as I, in my own minor way, approved of killing working class Americans and Iraqis I would never know. Thousands of Harvard affiliated staffers and members in Congress and clerks and judges and general counsels crafted the world of elite lawlessness we are in today. Facebook, one of the most destructive companies in history, one that has fostered many teenage suicides, was born at Harvard in the early 2000s. That is not something I heard much about at the reunion.So the introspection seemed real, but limited. People talked about how they had to slow down their career as high-powered consultants because it was destroying their family, but without an acknowledgement that this job had likely destroyed the families of many others. The Silicon Valley engineer working on technology to make it easier to vote, while also building AI tools that destroy journalism, was baffled anyone might question the moral fiber of her company or of Mark Zuckerberg. It’s not that we are bad people. I did talk to a former Facebook insider trying to atone for his sins by building software for kids.
