I love your syllabus Bryan. What a great way to introduce, use, and challenge students with evolving AI trends and issue!

This looks like a wonderful class, Bryan! Your students are in for a fascinating semester.

One thing I particularly appreciate about your approach is your incorporation of the "meta." This seems hard to avoid, given that you're focusing on a topic that may itself have a direct impact on the course during the semester, and I think it's so smart to embrace this uncertainty as part of the challenge and excitement of futuring.

I've also been thinking a lot about LLMs require meta-level thinking in the way both we and LLMs use language as the medium to talk, write, and think about the way LLMs talk, write, and, well, not quite think (yet). This is one way I see the popular calculator analogy falling short.

I hope the course is a great learning experience for both your students and you!
