Are you okay having the tables flipped and someone calling you "sis"?

Using male language as the default may not bother you and you may have no ill intent with it, but it does have a history tied to it. A history where women were seen as less than and didn't have equal rights. Western society still uses male language slang regardless of gender (hey guys, dude, bro, bruh) and it all stems from a history of a patriarchal society. Every time we say, "hey guys" to refer to a mixed-gender group, we perpetuate patriarchy, whether we intended to or not.

Legally and overall culturally, women are still seen as less than and we still don't have equal rights (e.g. divorce and abortion law).

In the wake of worker strikes and Amazon’s continued enshittification, I have pledged to stop buying anything from them.

Perhaps they have stopped thinking critically and believe that whatever is legal is ethical.

I'll save them some time: The entire for-profit insurance, prison, and banking industries are unethical.

This should be teaching us to work at the local and state levels to change the political process.

Pets don't want this. Don't do stuff like this to pets for internet points or real money.

If everyone dropped their health insurance tomorrow, a lot more people would die and face bankruptcy and homelessness. People don't want to hurt themselves in order to change the system; they want to hurt their oppressors in order to stop the oppression.

I have had trouble with it finding addresses as well. I use Magic Earth for driving because it can actually find most all the locations I search for.

the AI system will analyze their responses, time spent on tasks, and even emotional cues

That means every student is going to be recorded with a camera and microphone? Is anyone else horrified by the fact that the AI software is going to be actively watching and listening to these kids?

Or is it going to analyze typed responses only? (which is still creepy AF, btw)

It's extremely likely that US citizens are going to lose many consumer protections once Orange Shitler is back in office.
