Oh. My. God.

For your enjoyment: here is Secretary of Education Linda McMahon talking about implementing AI in schools, but pronouncing it "A1," as in "A1 Steak Sauce"

Mr. Kovensky has a very poor understanding of what I find entertaining.

bakerdphd.bsky.social•69 days ago

"Enjoyment" was most definitely not what came to my mind

dhfeldman.bsky.social•69 days ago

Only the best people…

Jesus wept

Is it bad that her repeating A1 made me think: 🎶 I wash my hands to keep away from Satan🎶

bakerdphd.bsky.social•69 days ago

I would rather uncle baby billy was in charge of ED

cdlc.bsky.social•69 days ago

Secretary Uncle Baby Billy has a nice ring to it

Bring some gravitas back

Straight up Ron Burgundy’d it.

robbieschneider.bsky.social•69 days ago

To be fair, my teen would be down with having A1 in the cafeteria.

Maybe this is a collab with usda for school lunch

robbieschneider.bsky.social•69 days ago

It will likely require a sponsorship...

So what this reads like to me is that she's using something computer generated. Like, my GPS sometimes refers to I-91 as "one ninety one". (This is not a defense, rather an additional wrinkle to how useless these people are at basic thinking.)

The person I got to watch it said she wasn't reading from anything?

erickaweathers.bsky.social•69 days ago

I also (begrudgingly) watched and I agree, it does not seem like she was reading from anything at all.

1. I'm sorry for that portion of your life/proxy's life.
2. I really can't quite process this. It's like referring to IBM as "one BM". It's not like "AI" is some new thing.

(Not making excuses for these horrorshows!)

Sigh

She really said it! Dominique, she actually says "A1!!"

bakerdphd.bsky.social•69 days ago

You read this and you think, "oh it's hyperbole!" and then realize that no, these people are actually this bad.

mirya.bsky.social•69 days ago

Or like, she's going to slip up once because she's hungry but NOOOOO she thinks that it is actually A1. Just the bottle of the talent and knowledge pool
