More on AI in schools. I ran across this at another site and found it interesting. Video from a teacher, and a test from 1895 to compare to today.

The test below is from a page at NASA. Title; Eighth-Grade Final Exam from 1895

Eighth-Grade Final Exam from 1895

Let's go back in time and give them an eighth-grade final exam from 2025 and see how they do.

A friend used it to get out of some kind of medical bill he didn't think he should get.  They send you that crap thinking you'll just pay it.  But it advised him on things to ask for... some kind of documents they must provide if you ask.  Then if they do you can question that which requires them to do more work.  You can specify they mail it to you.  Etc. Etc.  At some point the office staff just writes it off as it's not worth their time or they don't want to or can't.  Basically they do what they assume you will... just pick the easiest path even if it costs you money.

I'm a little surprised the other side didn't just ignore your friend's queries and just start sending him threats of collection and garnishment.

legally they can't.  Patients do have rights and it's buried in all that redundant paperwork we sign.
