    Am I imagining things, or are all of the "vaguely pro-AI" comments being brigaded into oblivion? I can't remember ever seeing this many reasonable posts being downvoted to the poin…

    I mean... Tiktok's hallmark trend has always been people doing "TikTok dances", which involve audio, so... But, besides that, TikTok became the titan it is today during the pandemi…

    That's just a standard disclaimer. This is just how it is out there. Ask teachers what students are like these days. Think about designing for users. Or cross-reference with other …

    Just getting to the point of using a voice mode is a challenge at that level. Like, we're talking about "has trouble formulating a question to ask in the first place". There's a wh…
