☆ There's a conservative 'great migration' from blue states — and one place is the big winner
  + stars: | 2024-04-18 | by ( Grace Eliza Goodwin | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Conservatives are fleeing blue states in favor of red states. Conservatives are fed up with the cost of living, and the politics, in blue states. AdvertisementConservatives are flocking en masse from blue states to one Republican stronghold in particular: South Carolina. Chabot said blue states need to take a page out of red states' playbook. "And so if these blue states want to get better, then they need to look at what red states are doing to retain their populations and their businesses."

☆ 3 Gen Zers on deciding to become full-time freelancers: ‘I wouldn't go back’ to a corporate job
  + stars: | 2023-05-21 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
A majority, 70% of Gen Zers consider freelancing to be as viable a career option as a typical office job, according to a February 2023 Fiverr survey of 7,121 Gen Zers from around the world. Gigi Robinson, 24, influencerGigi Robinson, 24, had long struggled with chronic illnesses like Ehlers Danlos Syndrome and endometriosis. When he moved to Boca Raton, Florida, at 15, he started making videos about what it was like for a Brazilian to live in the U.S. And those gained some traction. But though he'd hoped YouTube would become his full-time gig, the channel wasn't making much. He'd also started hiring freelancers to take on some of the work from his clients.
☆ You Can’t Cancel Me, I Quit
  + stars: | 2023-03-23 | by ( Mary Eberstadt | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
I was scheduled to give a speech on Monday at Furman University about my recent book, “Primal Screams: How the Sexual Revolution Created Identity Politics.” I canceled it. In the spring of 2014—in retrospect, the dress rehearsal for cancel culture—some commencement speakers around the country were disinvited or withdrew themselves from consideration owing to left-wing protests. I wasn’t among them. A few faculty members at Seton Hall University tried to have my invitation rescinded on the grounds that I wasn’t what they meant by “Catholic”—progressive. I delivered my address as scheduled at New Jersey’s Meadowlands Arena to some 6,000 graduates, families and friends, and was awarded an honorary doctorate in humane letters.
☆ Nikki Haley's road to the White House will be difficult, but she has a key polling advantage her rivals lack.
  + stars: | 2023-03-22 | by ( John L. Dorman | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +11 min
Nikki Haley faces a number of challenges — namely Donald Trump — as she runs for the White House. But the former governor still has the potential to overcome her current standing as the Republican primary season heats up. And if it works, she could position herself as a forward-thinking leader who can move the GOP past the tumult of the 2020 presidential election. And in a mid-March Morning Consult poll, Haley's favorability among GOP voters sat at 47%, while only 16% had an unfavorable view of her; roughly 1 in 5 respondents said they were unfamiliar with the ex-governor. AP Photo/Alex BrandonA push to move beyond the 2020 electionSince November 2020, Trump has continued to question his election loss, alleging voter fraud despite no evidence of widespread malfeasance.
☆ From deepfakes to Bing's chatbot, AI-generated content is everywhere. Here's how to spot it.
  + stars: | 2023-03-09 | by ( Lloyd Lee | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +10 min
Researchers have already developed some tools to spot AI-generated content and are claiming they have accuracy rates of up to 96%. Here's what you can do to detect AI-generated content. If you were to feed this tool Spanish-language text or a technical text like something from a medical journal, the tool would then struggle to detect AI-generated content. The second class of tools relies on the large language model's own prediction of a text being AI-generated or human. Other ways to spot AI-generated contentThe effectiveness of detection tools still relies on an individual's better judgment.

☆ Two professors who say they caught students cheating on essays with ChatGPT explain why AI plagiarism can be hard to prove
  + stars: | 2023-01-14 | by ( Beatrice Nolan | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Two philosopher professors said they caught their students submitting essays written by ChatGPT. If students don't confess to using the program, professors say it can be hard to prove. Antony Aumann, a religious studies and philosophy professor at Fordham University, told Insider he had caught two students submitting essays written by ChatGPT. When the chatbot said it was 99% sure the essays were written by ChatGPT, he forwarded the results to the students. Christopher Bartel, a professor of philosophy at Appalachian State University, said that while the grammar in AI-generated essays is almost perfect, the substance tends to lack detail.

New York CNN —New York City public schools will ban students and teachers from using ChatGPT, a powerful new AI chatbot tool, on the district’s networks and devices, an official confirmed to CNN on Thursday. “Due to concerns about negative impacts on student learning, and concerns regarding the safety and accuracy of content, access to ChatGPT is restricted on New York City Public Schools’ networks and devices,” Jenna Lyle, the deputy press secretary for the New York public schools, said in a statement. New York City appears to be the first major school district to crack down on ChatGPT, barely a month after the tool first launched. While there are genuine concerns about how ChatGPT could be used, it’s unclear how widely adopted it is among students. But many educators fear students will use the tool to cheat on assignments.
