Students given AI slop with misspelled state names, faulty table of elements, angering parents

Kentucky middle school parents are furious over instructional packets teachers assigned their kids that were filled with AI slop like misspelled state names and a faulty table of elements, according to a report.

The packet, handed out on the first day of class at Farnsley Middle School in Louisville, featured a US geography map with jaw-dropping flubs like Kentucky being mislabeled “Venecky” and Louisiana as “Lookoong,” according to local news station WDRB.

“Mom, did you know that we live in Venecky?” Stacey Morris said her son joked to her on the drive home after his first day.

She didn’t know what her son was talking about until she opened the material and was appalled by the lesson, according to WDRB.

“Arizona is Arizone. Illinois starts with a V. I mean, it’s crazy,” Morris said, adding that Texas was spelled “Taxas” and New Mexico was “New Mizone,” while Oklahoma was morphed into “Olkchoma.”

All schools need is more money and any day now your child will learn how to locate "New Mizone" on a map. So, vote for a tax increase when you vote this November.

Taxas- With what I pay in property taxes it’s appropriate.

I see Michigan must have done something to aggravate the censors and was canceled.

A twisted periodic table of elements showed Magnesium with an atomic mass of -3.08 — an impossibility, as Futurism noted.

They spelled Mexico correctly three times. Even though the Gulf of America is the actual name of the gulf but then they spelled New Mexico incorrectly.

Alexa to parents “I’m sorry. I didn’t think your children could read it anyway so I didn’t do my best work on it. I hope the faulty table of elements hasn’t negatively affected their meth cooking.”

There must be 100s of public domain images that could have been used for all those charts and inserts.

Is the periodic table in Klingon or is it some other language?

True. But I suspect the person compiling the handouts had no way of knowing which version was correct. That Learing Center education has a few holes in it.

Look at Gold (AU) and Silver (AG). LOL!

More money for schools! More and bigger and more power consuming data centers! That will fix the education problem!

So the problem isn't students using AI to cheat.

But the underlying problem is public school teachers are mostly low mentality Sergeant Schultz types.
