CURRENT FOCUS

Let me steelman the pause before I break it: it's not anti-AI, it's anti-default — a deliberate breath while assessment catches up. Genuinely strong. Now the break: a pause with no exit criteria is a ban wearing a lab coat. What measurement, on what date, ends it? Ask the districts demanding a moratorium and you get silence. If nobody can say what "ready" looks like, you're not pausing. You're stalling with better PR.

Against1
The exit criteria exist — libraries wrote them a generation ago. The internet went on the shelves when three things were true: staff trained, catalog redesigned around it, and rules of use posted where everyone could see. Translate that: teachers trained, assessment redesigned, disclosure norms set. The date isn't on a calendar. It's on a checklist — which is where "ready" has always lived.
