In episode 287, Josh, Chris, and Mark discuss OpenAI’s upcoming text watermarking feature (and how easy it can be to bypass) and the limits of AI-detection tools. The news concerning hacked refrigerators in France is unpacked! The guys also talk about Amazon’s recent acquisition of the wearable AI company "Bee" and the launch of inexpensive always-on recording devices (wrist-worn and phone-back forms). They debate how districts should respond to wearable recorders - considering state recording laws, IEP and parent meeting recordings, test security, and whether existing device policies cover these new tools. https://www.reddit.com/r/k12sysadmin/comments/1wzhygu/proxy_hiding_in_the_googleapiscom_domain/ ———— Sponsored by: Rise Vision ClassLink Lightspeed Systems Fortinet NTP ———— Join the K12TechPro Community (exclusively for K12 Tech professionals) Buy some swag (tech dept gift boxes, shirts, hoodies...)!!!
