@cyberlyra unfortunately that's not what is being proposed here in Vancouver. They want Copilot in all classes

We agree that children should have a class or two on AI literacy, just like there are classes on how to be safe online.

But that class should be led by educators and non-profits.

Not by a for-profit company that _needs_ AI to succeed.

You wouldn't let McDonalds run a school class on healthy eating habits.

@deirdrebeth @pluralistic Yes it does! Just don't check the "I live in Vancouver" box. Thank you!

@kevinrns I'm not sure how, the only link we have to the petition is that one. We don't have any control over whether they captcha it, sorry.

Our main site is at https://noai.school/

@pluralistic Hi, we are a group of parents in Vancouver that are trying to push back against local school board plans to deploy Microsoft Copilot into classrooms.

We have started a petition to show that parents are concerned and do not consent to their children using genAI in classrooms.

It would help so much if you could share it.
