#Graduation #AI #fail seems to be a recurring theme lately
Here's the latest 🍿 for you:
#Glendale community #college in #Arizona used AI to read names
Predictably, it missed people, it had the names out of order, etc
Because, of course, a human reading the names of #graduates and giving them simple decent recognition for their dedication and work is too hard?
This is video of college #faculty trying to explain the debacle. The crowd reaction is not supportive
And oh yeah: Fuck AI
I genuinely don't understand why they would spend money on AI to read names at graduation... getting a faculty member to volunteer to do it, a faculty member who is already being paid a salary and thus costs nothing extra, is better in every possible scenario.
Maybe next year they'll hire a trained dog to bark out the names? It would go over better
we're still in the dreamy honeymoon phase of starry eyed "AI for everything!"
even things, as you note, that do not remotely deserve an AI treatment. and is even rather insulting and cold
i suspect that will change
it damn well better change
trained doggo would be more popular with the students and provide a cute video (you could dress it up in cap and gown ) 🎓 🐶
