I mean, if this isn't a great use of AI for filmmaking, I don't know what is.
The power of AI has allowed me to bring you the Trump Harris debate one night early, or at least Trump's top secret strategy to win.

I have said it for years and I’ll say it again: stop saying things are “sexually and racially charged.” The things Donald Trump says are sexist and racist, full stop. I’m aware that @nytimes doesn’t follow AP style, but AP has also come to the same conclusion about “charged.”

Been called a lot of things in teaching evaluations over 15 years. None hurt more than being called a #DEI hire by a student who didn't put in the time & was graded accordingly. That @RepTimBurchett employs the same attack against @VP @KamalaHarris shows him for the #racist he is
Rep. Tim Burchett, a conservative Republican from Tennessee, attacks VP Kamala Harris as a "DEI hire."

As professors, one of the unwritten parts of the job is to protect our students in any way we can. It is shocking in this video how @CarolineFohlin was treated for doing just that in what appears to be the least threatening way possible.

Antisemitism is never acceptable. But protesting against the slaughter in Gaza is not inherently antisemitic. It is doing what should be done on a college campus – taking a stand against a perceived wrong, thereby provoking discussion and debate. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Denied use of their professional cameras by @Gannett, this is the only image striking Austin American-@Statesman photojournalists were able to take of the 2024 total eclipse in Texas 😔

If you know a high school student that's into photography, consider sending them to my camp @QuinnipiacU this summer. It's a great way to get a taste of the college experience, make some life-long friends, and learn some cool stuff along the way: qu.edu/academics/about-our-p…

This is despicable.
.@Adobe It's beyond sad that you continue to sell AI-generated outputs that bear zero connection to the realities of the world, and destroy the human connection we ought to have with people, whether in times of trauma or not, such as the below. #degenerativeai #GenerativeAI #fail

I'm thrilled for my colleague, @kcools12 Kelly Gaggin, whose upcoming book is set to launch in 2024. Her contribution to the field of Nonprofit Communications is a highly anticipated and a welcomed addition to the public relations literature. Congratulations, Kelly!

youtu.be/U5yRu7UKwfc?si=ldTK… While I thought #Ahsoka was just OK overall, seeing @haydenchristen make #Anakin his own, watching the dark side come out without the helmet and the suit, was something I didn't even know I wanted to see. Let's hope for a season 2?
