A major Australian university used artificial intelligence technology to accuse about 6,000 students of academic misconduct last year.
The most common offence was using AI to cheat, but many of the students had done nothing wrong.
I converted this to LaTeX and made a version that looks all official and spiffy. In the process, I edited the paragraph about the "Ask me anything" chapter, so I modified that paragraph here to match.
We won't have any usable web browsers, but that's OK, because there won't be a web worth browsing.

Perhaps, one day, someone will talk about "the people that downvoted me" without sounding like a total goober. But that day is not today.
Counterpoint: Celebrating Hitler's death is good, actually. Celebrate Hitler's death on the train, on the boat, wherever good times are had!
I'm glad to see that another mod has already pushed the fuck off with you button.
The hundreds of billions of dollars companies are investing in AI now account for an astonishing 40 per cent share of US GDP growth this year. And some analysts believe that estimate doesn’t fully capture the AI spend, so the real share could be even higher.
AI companies have accounted for 80 per cent of the gains in US stocks so far in 2025. That is helping to fund and drive US growth, as the AI-driven stock market draws in money from all over the world, and feeds a boom in consumer spending by the rich.
Since the wealthiest 10 per cent of the population own 85 per cent of US stocks, they enjoy the largest wealth effect when they go up. Little wonder then that the latest data shows America’s consumer economy rests largely on spending by the wealthy. The top 10 per cent of earners account for half of consumer spending, the highest share on record since the data begins.

The Forbes "contributor" hive strikes again.
To quote the most pedantic nerds on Earth (complimentary),
Most content on Forbes.com is written by contributors or "Senior Contributors" with minimal editorial oversight, and is generally unreliable. Editors show consensus for treating Forbes.com contributor articles as self-published sources, unless the article was written by a subject-matter expert. Forbes.com contributor articles should never be used for third-party claims about living persons.
Well, now the students have incentive to record all the stages of their progress. And the professors have incentive to assign projects in stages, each one of which has a tangible output. It's the golden age of the index card, baby! Fill out one for each idea or claim you want to use from a book you read, wrap the stack with a rubber band... This oddly dovetails with the professors' obligations, since now we have to teach how to do research all over again.
