Yeah-I was reading some teachers being upset about that since kids were crying or screaming for joy!

"'“Humans get tired; some days are better than others. The AI does not get tired. It doesn’t get grumpy. It doesn’t have a bad day. The AI is consistent,” says Juan Espinoza, vice provost for enrollment management at Virginia Tech.

This fall, Virginia Tech is debuting an AI-powered essay reader. The college expects it will be able to inform students of admissions decisions a month sooner than usual, in late January, because of the tool's help sorting tens of thousands of applications.""

Isn’t AI racist?

Jesus Christ.

I mean, it does have racial biases (and probably others too) bc what it was trained on had biases. It’s only a good as the inputs

That said, readers also have biases so 💁‍♂️

VT EA not until early to mid February.

All this based on past 2-3 years’ timing.

Granted, this was 2023, my dd got her VT EA on Feb. 17.

Another teaser from VT saying that this week “just feels different”. I guess tomorrow.

When our older kid got in, it was definitely on a Friday. Not saying it will be tomorrow but Tech made it pretty clear it wanted to get decisions out earlier this year.

How is this a teaser? It's different because it's freakin cold and we are going to get a lot of snow dumped on us. Don't they have a tradition where there's a snowball battle with the first storm?
