Hi all!
Sorry for not getting a newsletter out last week! We will be returning to our regularly scheduled programming shortly.
But one of the reasons we’re a bit behind is that we’re making some big changes over here:
Well, they’re not that big. We’re just changing our name. “Genuine Intelligence Project” was a working name that wound up sticking, but it doesn’t ultimately capture what we’re up to.1
Instead, we are proud to announce that we are now the “AAUP-NC Critical AI Policy Project.” While we didn’t know about the “critical AI” framework at first, it really is exactly what we’re up to. (For more on this, check out the “Teaching Critical AI Literacies” document put together by Rutgers’s excellent Critical AI initiative.)
All the old URLs should redirect to the new ones, so it shouldn’t be a practical problem, but the official Substack link is now https://cappnc.substack.com.
We’ve also got a new website! You can track us down at https://cappnc.org. It’s pretty sparse right now, but we’re in the process of consolidating and cleaning up all the resources we’ve made; we hope it will be a straightforward, easy-to-use place to find helpful links, upcoming events, and so on.
Last thing: if you’re interested following us or sharing what we’re doing but don’t like Substack, we also post everything we write on a microblog platform called Mataroa. This blog can now be found at . While much more minimal, Mataroa is a great platform, and you can subscribe to it as a newsletter, just like Substack. Here’s the link for that: https://blog.cappnc.org/newsletter/. (I usually post things on Mataroa a few minutes before Substack, too – just in case you’re really jonesing for that sweet, sweet newsletter content.)
Anyway, thanks for sticking with us!! More soon –
Theodora
