  • (yes, you could list what they have done, and I could list what Americans have done, but let’s pretend up until this point they have all done “nothing”, as you can’t possibly hold the USA to a higher standard than all of Europe without admitting that the USA is more capable than all of Europe)

    There’s a couple things I love about this paragraph:
    1: “without admitting that the USA is more capable than all of Europe”
    We’re literally talking about how 67% of Americans disapprove of their own leader and still can’t escape American exceptionalism

    2: It quietly implies that Europeans who disapprove of Trump (the leader of a different country) are equally responsible for doing something about it as actual American citizens.

    3: it neatly avoids all the facts that Europe has done things that are effective, even if it does not remove Trump from power, while Americans gather at their “we don’t like Trump” conventions once every couple of months where they stay out of the way and don’t cause too much trouble before cleaning up nicely after themselves and getting back to work on Monday.

    4: Despite the inescapable American Exceptionalism it is still the fault of everyone else for not cleaning up their mess for them.

    AI is a terrible way to learn something. It will do something wrong, explain it incorrectly, and you will have no idea.

    AI is only useful if you are able to spot and correct the mistakes it makes. Because it will make mistakes.

    Very effective teaching tools already exist if you want to learn.
