The ELT Buzz Digest
Our weekly report on the "buzz" in education. Oct. 21st.
Dear Teachers,
Our HUGE weekly report below.
This week, I’d like to share this doc with references to Ai and the environmental costs associated. I think we need more about this issue spotlighted. Yes, use Ai but judiciously, it’s not a frivolous thing and when compared to regular search, voraciously uses energy and water (conservatively 4-5x).
Best,
David - ELT Buzzer-In-Chief
