When two years of academic work vanished with a single click:https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-04064-7#Link to patreon:https://www.patreon.com/acoll...
Him pressing the button had nothing to do with media literacy. Neither she nor the article bother to include a picture of the popup or its direct verbiage so we have no idea what it even said.
It’s almost like that sentence you quoted continues “I temporarily disabled the ‘data consent’ option because I wanted to see whether I would still have access to all of the model’s functions”. Though I’m sure you know how it ends and conveniently left it out because it doesn’t support your view. Plenty of sites or applications limit functionality if you decide not to share your data. The professor wanted to know what functionality they might be unable to use going forward. That generally has nothing to do with preexisting data. If I turn off location data for my photos, it doesn’t retroactively remove the data from previous photos. It’s not unbelievable to expect to still have access to previous chats.
Suggesting he completely fabricated or used AI to generate his data is unfounded based on the article and his statements.
You never touched on her commenting about coding and never even addressed the point that she didn’t bother to even look at what the button said before making a video about it. You’re free to think her criticism is well deserved, but I do not think she bothered to justify her video beyond “AI bad”. You can dislike AI while still being critical of people who agree with you on that point.
