This must go hard if you’re stupid

They wanna put ROBOTS in HUMAN classrooms!

Woman with no academic achievements who let a pedophile impregnate her for money offers her academic advice.

Anyway, here's the first lady naked.

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Vis a vis, the nudes inclusion: on the first -- and a very honest -- level, I'm just uninterested. Eastern Europe puts out a lot of porn, so I can pretty much picture the equipment she's working with.

But, on a more enlightened level, looking at her nude in response to her opinion feels like commentary on the worth of women tying to their sexual availaibility.

She sucks, and not just because she sucks for pay.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

The way I see it, if conservatives want to engage in an eternal purity test, then I'm going to link to their first lady's nudes on the internet.

She's also an awful person, so that puts my conscience to rest.

She should get her whore hands off our children's education and encourage her husband to get his pedo hands off our children's bodies.

Which one's the robot?

[–] nonentity@sh.itjust.works 16 points 4 hours ago

A healthy and broadly educated population, which feels safe and secure, is incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative and authoritarian ideologies.

They need you to be sick, stupid, and scared.

[–] kcuf@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

saying that AI is future, and America's children must become the most technologically fluent in the world.

We used to say our children were the future.

Moronic of Melania.

It's almost like we've learned nothing from Covid. Human interaction is crucial for children's developmental well-being. Also, a robot has about as much instructional control over a kid as a computer screen would, and we all know how that turned out when elementary-aged kids came back from at-home learning. Robots can't teach social skills, and without any sort of rapport with students, good luck getting kids to listen to them in the first place. I've said it in another comment recently, but what's to stop a class of rambunctious kids from locking their robo-teacher in a closet or something? The ethics of this whole situation are a clusterfuck.

Of course it's one of Elon's cuckbots, probably being driven by some kid in Malaysia

[–] lemmyng@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

Coming from the sex doll with the second (in theory) highest position in the country if not the world.

[–] RaoulDook@lemmy.world 12 points 5 hours ago

I don't really believe they want to teach the children critical thinking skills, because if they had them they should question all the Trumptard bullshit.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 58 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

Can't have real humans with unauthorized opinions "corrupting" the minds of our students.

Also, fuck Melania, she's a horrible person, just fucking horrible, like the rest of them.

[–] Mihies@programming.dev 21 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Hard to distinguish who is the robot in the image.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 hours ago

It's the stiff, uncanny looking figure in white.

[–] AskewLord@piefed.social 22 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

American has such a massive hardon for hating on teachers.

[–] biscuit@lemdro.id 8 points 5 hours ago

It's in their best interests to continue the downward trend of education in the US. They literally forced children to say a pledge of allegiance every morning. US has been indoctrinating children for hundreds of years and the only thing stopping them continue that effort are liberal teachers.

[–] rozodru@piefed.world 15 points 6 hours ago

Well of course it does. An educated populace directly hinders the government. Plus Republicans NEED to keep the populace dumb, angry, and poor. It's the best way to control them and easily push agendas without any push back.

[–] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 11 points 5 hours ago

says the woman with no education

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 34 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Yes I'm sure this is cheaper than the 40k/yr teacher salary.

[–] femtek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Not getting sick, not needing vacation, won't argue against religious indoctrination, can't sue when it gets shot during a school shooting, no health insurance premiums.

Just lucrative support deals

[–] grimpy@lemmy.myserv.one 24 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

The Melaniabot is almost lifelike!

[–] Neptr@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 4 hours ago

Can't tell which one is the "real" robot.

[–] treadful@lemmy.zip 14 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Not only can AI share a depth and breadth of knowledge, she said, but it can also patiently help children develop "deep critical thinking and independent reasoning abilities," achieve a "more well-rounded lifestyle" as they make time for other activities and become a "more complete person."

haha

[–] LuxSpark@lemmy.cafe 4 points 5 hours ago

More like have more time to work at the sweat shop.

[–] northernlights@lemmy.today 6 points 6 hours ago

Dang that's a convincing robot. The android on the left is pretty cool too.

AI robots as potential, "personalized" educators for America's children in their homes.

Well... it sure is a way to end school shootings...

This is just a super duper greatttttt idea from thepaedowife, because, as we all know, that the only thing that can kill a bad guy with a gun is a good robot with a rocket.
I'm absolutely positive the gun toting weirdos that plague american schools will not use this to their advantage.

Plus they get rid of those pesky teachers who can teach kids to think for themselves!!

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 7 hours ago

I prefer libraries. With robots, books, & no screens, the kids could maybe survive and even have a shot in hell at something better, but I'm sure that's far from what's being proposed.

[–] verdi@tarte.nuage-libre.fr 4 points 6 hours ago

Iliterate woman pitches robots as teachers. Ooof, no wonder China is running circles around the US on tech.

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 hours ago

I'd say she was inspired by Neal Stephenson's book Diamond Age, but I've seen no compelling evidence that Melanua can read.
