Semantic debt arises when institutions lose the discipline to protect meaning. Pacioli built accounting to prevent it; FASB maintains it. When meaning corrodes, trust follows. When referees stop enforcing rules, the game collapses.

The Fair Credit Reporting Act shows how to govern powerful predictive systems without prying open the black box: define meaning, enforce accountability, enable correction. My latest techpolicy.press/the-1970-la…

Compare the facts in Daugherty v. Ocwen (false credit reporting) to the Starbuck allegations (AI lies). That structural parallel shows why FCRA was enacted — to fill an accountability gap. law.justia.com/cases/federal… @robbystarbuck @dhillonlaw @AAGDhillon

One scholar argues that the AI defenses Google raises today resemble those of credit bureaus before 1970, until Congress bypassed defamation law and forced accountability through the Fair Credit Reporting Act. buff.ly/UDhQZy5

theregreview.org/2025/12/22/… Starbuck’s case isn’t about celebrity ego. It’s about every American who’ll face AI-generated lies with no legal recourse. Google is using the same defenses credit bureaus used before Congress enacted 1970 FCRA. @DhillonLaw @AAGDhillon @robbystarbuck

Federal rules meant to prevent fraud are now preventing learning. AI has exposed the absurdity of “RSI compliance” in higher ed.
My latest for the Martin Center: The Compliance Theatre of Online Learning
13 Nov 2025
AI puts every answer one click away—yet colleges cling to compliance theater instead of real mastery. If no one verifies learning, a degree becomes just a credential, not competence.

LLMs outsource math to Wolfram|Alpha but fake their way through social reasoning. That inversion tells you everything about AI's institutional knowledge problem.

Artificial intelligence can reproduce the language of knowledge but not the reasoning that makes knowledge possible. James Andrews explores how understanding algorithms requires collaboration between technologists, humanists, and social scientists. loom.ly/ZccUH8s

When the numbers don’t sell, universities tell a different story. My Martin Center essay on how higher ed misleads students: Selling Dreams, Not Reality.
12 Sep 2025
Colleges sell dreams, not outcomes. Students deserve real data: graduation odds, job placement, and actual wages. Stop pitching prestige—start reporting results.

Equity without honesty is just a trap. Students need facts, not fantasies. jamesgmartin.center/2025/09/…

I am heartbroken by the political assassination of Charlie Kirk. He was a gentleman above all else, treating friend and adversary with the same dignity and respect. College should be a place where we engage with differing perspectives, not silence them.

California’s Math Framework ‘equity majors’ = same trap. Lower K–12 standards, then funnel students into college degrees with no labor-market lift. @AEIeducation @PrestonCooper93 @EDNEXTT @garrytan @savemathnow @HooverInst @CalPolicyCenter @CaliforniaGlobe @KATYSaccitizen

True equity, as James Andrews explains, aligns skills with opportunity, respects all productive work, and preserves the meaning of educational credentials. loom.ly/SUed1MM

lawliberty.org/the-equity-tr… We told kids “college for all,” then steered them into debt & degrees with no labor-market value. That’s not equity — it’s a trap. Skills & real pathways matter. @mikeroweworks

@mikeroweworks been right for years: we devalued skilled work while pushing students into credentials that don’t pay. Equity reforms just doubled down, tracking underprepared students into debt instead of opportunity.

Legal scholars and senators have debated it for over a century: Who is “subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S.? @RobNatelson revisits the Senate debates, legal precedent, and the forgotten concept of allegiance. loom.ly/Q6suJBQ

California Math Framework = Academic Sabotage!
CA’s math “equity” framework = a scam. Delayed Algebra & no tracking = shutting out public school kids from STEM. Meanwhile, Newsom’s kids get the real deal. $20k per student wasted on woke ideology, not rigor. Parents, demand real math NOW!

California Math Framework: Equity or Academic Sabotage?
For families who can write $60,000 tuition checks, opportunity is still on the table; for everyone else, the game is rigged.
