Sue everyone. I don't care. Sue the airline, the airport, the agents, cause TSA agents subjecting a severely disabled person to this is physical torture, and now his condition has worsened because of their lack of compassion and commonsense.

Any educator defending the use of AI is a scab.

[Mountain Ğeneral @MountainGenera]

Since Pope Leo XIV mentioned this in encyclical, this means if your employer is pushing you to use AI, you can cite religious conserns as a reason to not use it at work
