Tag AI and instructional design
We live in strange times. As human-written content continues to disappear from the Internet (Almost three-fourths of the web pages now have AI-generated content), when I write posts without AI-assistance, I feel rather chuffed.
Anyway, here are five posts that I like quite a bit. This list is somewhat eclectic in nature – but I heartily recommend the xAPI post to all experienced IDs, the creativity post to the perfectionists, the ghosting post to the ghosters and the ghostees, the AI workslop post to those who open their inboxes in the morning and feel a churning in their stomachs, and finally…the LLM’s announcement post to everyone who’s thinking that this is the end of the AI race.
