With Universities now rolling out "Vice Chancellor of AI" roles I wonder who's left to keep the #AI industry in check and who's supposed to build a new scientific system after the current crop of academics have outsourced their thinking and writing to stochastic parrots?
Should especially Universities have a different standard? The assumption that students "will use AI in their jobs" and therefore they should get to acquire the actual skills themselves is such a bleak case of epistemic injustice.
