 sting Inevitability Discourse and Recognizing Power in the Generative AI “
 Revolution”\n\nAfter over a year of ChatGPT’s domination of teaching and l
 earning conversations\, it’s common to hear an emergent discourse of inevi
 tability: it is here\, and we must deal with it. But technologies are not 
 inevitabilities. Every institutionally-sanctioned digital technology is th
 e outcome of a procurement process\, one that weighed moral and ethical co
 ncerns against efficiencies and costs. And sometimes\, so too are the tech
 nologies we select on our own and for ourselves\, choices we make after a 
 conscious or unconscious weighing of what matters to us. This is true even
  of the bad tech. This is true even when we pretend we didn’t know\, could
 n’t know.\n\nIn this talk\, we will explore who benefits from discourses o
 f inevitability in the technosolutionist landscape\, surface a framework f
 or making our own decisions about choosing to engage with generative AI te
 chnologies like ChatGPT\, and discuss strategies for resistance and refusa
 l\, where appropriate.\n\nDr. Brenna Clarke Gray is a critical educational
  technologist working as a practitioner/researcher and theorist. She is al
 so an academic podcaster. Her focus is on the ethical\, accessible\, and c
 are-informed use of digital tools in education.\n\nThis event is also part
  of the 6th Season of Disrupting Disruptions: the Feminist and Accessible 
 Publishing and Communications Technologies Speaker and Workshop Series (ht
 tps://www.feministandaccessiblepublishingandtechnology.com)\, organized by
  Dr. Alex Ketchum. Our series was made possible thanks to our sponsors: SS
