    1. The article itself seems like an LLM summary of a conversation. 2. No US educational institution should ever grade on a curve. Your job is not to compare students but to educate…

    It has to do with the priorities of the company and its leadership. Either they lack the basic awareness to know that training on your business customers data will likely leak thei…
