Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

This shows that Corporate Interests have the same amount of contempt for teachers as they do for sex workers.

And that they are completely out of touch with both industries.

Yeah, I've seen what students do to even the best teachers - let's see what they do to ones that don't have souls.

Experiment on the poor, until they can build a safe, high quality enough one they can then exclusively give to wealthy children to further increase the advantage between rich and poor. We are forced into being experimented on FFS, risking our health so the wealthy can chase power.

Of course there's a class element to this, but you give them too much credit.

This isn't poor people being exposed to stupid AI so rich people can reap the benefits of actual AI. This is poor people being subjected to stupid AI so AI company shareholders can pretend that their stupid AI is worth anything for another quarter.

someone just got a Rule34 scenario for free

It sucks and I hate it, and I applaud the locals who rallied together to yell at that superintendent until he finally paused the implementation of this thing. This shit is not inevitable, and if one of these dolls does ever end up in a poor, underserved high school, I hope it’s one that’s a lot like the one where I went to school because it would be a smoldering pile of silicone in the corner of the girls’ room by the end of the first week.

How long until the class bully overpowers it and has his way with it?
