About that school district that banned books using ChatGPT.
A school administrator in charge of complying with Iowa’s book ban argues in The New York Times that using ChatGPT has kept more books on the shelves than other school districts.
Bridgette Exman, the administrator, told The Verge in August that using ChatGPT was a way to show “a good faith effort” to follow the law, which she calls “misguided” and “destructive” in the Times.
I’d argue that we used A.I. to try to keep books. The technology allowed us to zero in only on those books that violated the precise letter of the law without collateral damage to other books, enabling us to keep on the shelf more than 30 titles we feared might be questionable.
