Rize Education's blog on higher-ed trends, enrollment, program adoption and career-ready courses, told from a tech-and-academics angle.

Job board built around company culture, pairing curated listings with an AI-powered application autofill and a Slack community for peer career support.
Why I recommend it: Free to search and apply. The AI autofill can speed up repetitive forms, but review every answer before submitting — a hiring manager's first impression should be yours, not the model's.
A communal blog where working mathematicians — professors, PhD students, sceptics and enthusiasts alike — write about what AI is doing to their field: authorship, what counts as understanding, where papers will go, and whether the job changes. Recent pieces include Martin Hairer on why he joined the AGMAI advisory group and Jonny Evans on the choices ahead. Submissions are open to anyone in the field, any length.
Why I recommend it: Free to read and free to write for. Worth reading even if you never touch mathematics: it is one of the few places where a whole profession is arguing in public about what AI does to its craft, in its own words rather than a journalist's. These are individual opinions, not findings — the value is the range of them, and the disagreement is the point.
