Btw. If you're a teacher and you catch one of your students (kids, tweens, teens) using AI for the first time, please be gentle with them.
Last week i was looking into one of my teen's homework when I noticed she was writing words she "wasn't supposed to know" in english (like "furthermore", for example. They only know very intermediary english) I got a bit mad for a second. I wear an "anti-AI" button all the time, i even told them before why i was anti-AI, yet she didn't listen to me and thought she could get away with it... But i decided to keep it cool because i didn't know why she would do this, since she never did.
Okay, one week after, this Wednesday, it was time for their class again and, when she arrived, i told her to come to my desk and asked her: "what is furthermore?" She went pale when she noticed the paper in my hands. I asked again: "darling, what is furthermore?" Then, she shuttered: "I don't know, teacher. I'm sorry, I had to ask Gemini because I had no time..." then I sat her down, she was clearly upset (she is just 13) and I asked her what happened. "I didn't have any time left because of my exams and there were too many units to go through. So I asked my mom to help me and she told me to use ChatGPT but I asked google instead." Okay. So I looked into her eyes and told her it was okay, that she didn't need to be upset, but she would have to re-do that paper and bring it back to me by the next week. I told her she didn't need google or gpt to do her work, because she got a very high score at her english exam (both at school and at the course). She got right back on her feet and we started class as normal.
The only reason why I'm telling you this is because I hate AI. I hate it SO much. But, as a teacher now, I hate ANYTHING that takes the learning process away from kids. I hate the GLOSSARY in my kids' books as well for the same reason bc they don't want to figure the words out with me, they want to check the answer as fast as they can to get rid of that boring thing and I don't blame them for wanting to get rid of the boring task! But I blame ADULTS for allowing the kids to go the fast way, when they need the slow process to learn something! Her MOM told her to use ChatGPT to ace her homework. You know, the person PAYING the course bills so her daughter can learn english at an early age doesn't care about her learning process. But I do. I care. And you should care too. It's not my student's fault, it's about the learned helplessness, it's about wanting to be the fastest, it's about the knowledge scrapping, the way nobody cares anymore. And the kids are being affected by parents who don't care anymore. They're byproducts of this. So please, when teaching them why AI is bad, be gentle. It's not their fault the world around them is teaching them how to be dumb in a smart, sneaky way.
for the good of all mankind

carl is introduced as an extension of stratt. he's there to physically get grace into the car just in case stratt's words are not imposing enough. and when stratt does her little emotional manipulation show pretending she's gonna leave grace out of the project, it is carl who pushes him to just say yes to the three astrophage dots, acting almost as a mediator between them
but given time, carl and grace become friends. they do their venus box experiment together and grace credits carl in front of representatives from all around the world when asked about his discoveries. the movie even calls them parents, which is obviously played as a joke, but as someone who loves to take things too seriously, i do think it's significant when rocky having a mate and the reasons grace doesn't have one become a trigger for more memories later down the line. and that's the thing. grace wants to have an emotional connection with stratt, but she denies him of any friendship outside of a professional relationship. so he's friends with carl instead
and somewhere along the way, grace and the audience forget that carl is an extension of stratt, so we need to be reminded and feel kind of stupid for forgetting. we know that carl works for stratt, but he's grace's friend, so his loyalty lies with him right? nope. just like stratt, carl errs in the side of humanity. so when grace is chased and held down, carl doesn't try to help him get free, he doesn't even appear to consider it. he's back to being an imposing figure enacting a will higher than grace's
however, in grace's final moments amongst humanity, it is carl who acts as stratt's mouthpiece and delivers the lines that she cannot say herself, but we understand they come from her because she showed enough vulnerability to tell grace that she believes in him:
you know who you are, you're gonna do great
Bear religion probably fucking rocks. You're a fucking bear, you're the deadliest thing on earth, once a year an endless supply of salmon just flings itself up the river to gorge on and then you nap for 3 months.
dunno about you but I distinctly remember this happening

kinda continuation of my previous art. anyway i think grace and rocky watched a bit of WWE before this

both 30 years old, born on the same day at precisely the same millisecond, but she was born in the state of Arizona which does not observe daylight savings time so one could possibly make the (weak) argument that she's an hour older. problematic age gap?
alright alright how about this other chick. she was born orbiting a black hole and due to relativistic effects currently unexplained by established models we are both 14 million years younger than eachother. help me with the ethics of this
definitionally yes
