AI being used to ban books

A Mason City school board is so lazy that it has outsourced its book banning to AI.

The board had so many things that it wanted to ban, but the only problem is that it would have to read each book to see if there were any objectionable contents.

Reading would always be tricky, particularly if the book banners were going to find something to be outraged about ahead of the 2023/24 school year.

Mason City Community School District assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction Bridgette Exman said: "Our classroom and school libraries have vast collections, consisting of texts purchased, donated, and found. Reading every book and filtering for these new requirements is simply not feasible."
