Students are being punished for writing properly, as their teachers think they are using generative AI.

Now, they are starting to write worse __just to not get flagged as an AI__.

Is it fair that teachers prohibit students using AI, but then use it themselves?

And, shouldn't AI be considered a tool, like a calculator? Once you learn the basics, the calculator becomes a tool. AI is the same.

AI is making students write worse, on purpose

Yesterday, Germany has said that they won’t be supporting EU’s Chat Control. 

> We as the CDU/CSU parliamentary group are against indiscriminate monitoring of chats. That would be like preemptively opening all letters to check whether there's something illegal in them. That's not acceptable, that won't happen under our watch.

If all countries stick to their statements, then it won’t happen, but it could change in any moment.



Update: Germany opposes to Chat Control!

EU Chat Control Worsens

Nostr clients that don’t comply will probably get banned. I’m sure the EU will ask ISP’s what users are using Nostr, IPTV, Torrents, IPFS and Tor (and VPN’s); to add them to some “criminal” list.

Bitchat shouldn’t get affected as it doesn’t connect to the internet when in bluetooth mode. And it uses Tor so you’ll be anonymous anyway.

> SO wait... all the platforms have to change their code/encryption algorithms to be in compliance?

Yep
> What if they say 'no'? 'We won't do it?' Etc etc

They will probably be fined and blocked in the EU.
> Furthermore, what happens to signal, proton etc? They won't comply. And those apps can't be 'shut down' either because they are widely available.

They’ll leave the EU market. (https://x.com/mer__edith/status/1796508893822238881)

Oh, and this rule doesn’t apply to politicians, only to normal people.

They want to scan all communications (even end to end encrypted) between EU citizens. Messaging platforms have to send all your messages to EU servers before encryption so they can check if you have CSAM.

Germany, Belgium, Latvia, and Italy UNDECIDED. If Germany supports it, it will be approved.

In that case, messaging platforms will have to implement it before October 14th, 2025. With so little time, it is impossible to build such thing with good security.

If you are an EU Citizen, you can use the mail template in fightchatcontrol.eu to send it to your MEP’s.
