We're almost at 2k & anybody from anywhere can add their names. https://openletter.earth/open-letter-stop-the-uncritical-adoption-of-ai-technologies-in-academia-b65bba1e?limit=0

@olivia@scholar.social ...i have children that study at the university, how would you like to ban AI when most work is done at home? I fully understand/support banning AI for tests, exams, activities at the university. But AI is and will be used in a support role for most students i am afraid, whether we like it or not. Shouldn't we focus on how to use AI responsible and in a way that increases learning instead of all the "banning"?

@olivia@scholar.social I've added myself. There was a slight problem with filling in my org name where my org is named after its url: sifaka.dev. It's an online tool after all. For now I've added spaces to make it an invalid url. Hope that's alright.
