TL;DR: you now need to pay a $20/month “meta premium” subscription to use a 100% offline feature that runs on your own malware-ridden smartglasses.

If you don’t subscribe, you can use the feature that is already included in the hardware that you already paid for 3 hours each month

The now-paywalled feature boosts the voice of the speaker in front of you, something that even low-end ANC earphones are doing now. 5 minutes of free usage per day is basically nothing.

    I’m not a teacher, but I dunno if that’s the right response to someone cheating. It is going to be his problem in the future, but as a teacher, isn’t it her job to teach the kid that that’s not OK? Sorta depends on the age, I suppose, but I’d definitely give the kid a 0% instead of a C.

      She couldn’t really have done anything considering she didn’t know which kid it was until after they were gone and the other student informed her.

        Ahh, that makes a bit more sense I suppose. Innocent until proved guilty and whatnot. I feel like I’d still want to bring them in to confront them about it, to let them know that they didn’t really get away with it. Also, obviously, I’d be banning smart glasses from tests.

          She’s visiting for a funeral and I commented something on the commercial for them, and she told me that sorry and about how she has to watch out for them now. Another loose relation is visiting and a teacher as well and I asked them about ai and got two totally different experiences. My mom’s class doesn’t require a lot of literature as it’s a low level bio class, but the loose family is teaching English to troubled youth and sees it absolutely everywhere. She started having them write one paper first day in class to get a feel for their actual writing aptitude.

      Morality and such isn’t really a teacher’s job.

      Besides that, “between no kid left behind” and government testing standards that are tied into funding, teaching a turned into a generic lump of shit, and everyone gets to pass.

        Excuse me, with how shitty parents are, someone has to step up, or we are all screwed.

        Let’s put aside who’s job is what, these kids are going to be building our future too.

        It isn’t really an issue of morality imo, it’s a teacher’s job to give grades that reflect the student’s skill level.
