* Draft
Hi everyone, hope the end of the term has been treating everyone well. Although, just because the term is done doesn't mean there's a pause in news about AI. I want to spend the bulk of this issue talking about that report from the federal Department of Education about AI and education, but first we have some stories to cover over the past few weeks.
For example, there's this /fun/ local story about our own non-emergency response here in Portland:
https://www.wweek.com/news/city/2023/06/17/ai-call-taker-will-begin-taking-over-police-non-emergency-phone-lines-next-week/
Apparently we're moving to a automatic transcription -> natural language processing pipeline to route non-emergency calls to the police. Yes, this is about non-emergency calls, so it's not likely that we're going to have people die because of this but
umm
we understand, right, exactly who the people this will fail are, right? Automatic speech recognition is much more likely to fail for people who speak english with an accent that isn't "midwestern american english".
