Ukraine Offensive:

In June, Ukraine initiated a counterattack to reclaim territories that had been lost. Despite facing challenges in penetrating Russia's robustly fortified defenses, which comprised several layers of trenches bolstered by artillery, Ukraine made notable progress. Ukrainian authorities reported that their forces successfully breached one of Russia's defense lines and regained control of a village in the southeastern region of the country.
This development, subsequently verified, signifies the first instance of Ukraine successfully overcoming Russia's defenses this summer. The fact that Ukraine only managed to breach one of Russia's defense lines for the first time over the summer, despite support from NATO, highlights the limited progress that has been made even with significant international backing.
It underscores the crucial role of NATO support in preventing further advancements by Russia; without NATO's aid, it is likely that Russia would have made much more significant advances into Ukrainian territory. Essentially, NATO backing has been pivotal in bolstering Ukraine's resistance, even though progress in reclaiming lost land has been minimal.

OpenAI Teaching with AI:

OpenAI has created a "Teaching with AI" guide to help teachers use ChatGPT in classrooms. The guide includes FAQs, learning prompts, and suggested ways to use the AI chatbot, like creating lesson plans and helping English language learners.
It emphasizes the need for teacher and student collaboration and oversight while using ChatGPT, and addresses concerns about plagiarism and the limitations of AI-generated content detectors. It also provides example prompts created by University of Pennsylvania professors, and highlights the importance of human oversight in assessments.
Finally, it reminds users that ChatGPT does not have internet access, and encourages educators to consider district policies before using ChatGPT in classrooms. Additional resources and online courses are also provided in the guide.
