Hello people of PMC, to start of this weeks report we have a story about some very vulgar vacuums. In the areas of El Paso, Texas, Los Angeles, and MINNESOTA there have been quite a few reports of Ecovacs starting to spit slurs and harass pets. One of the people affected by the strange behaviour of the vacuums has talked to cbc news abt his own personal incident. While he and his family were watching tv the Deebot was starting to make a static like noise; after resetting it to see if it would be fixed he could hear the voice of a teenager screaming racial slurs. After that he simply deactivated the machine. The company who made the vacs found and unusual IP address that was most likely spoofed so that the person responsible for taking control of these bots could not be found via IP. The company has decided to release a security update around this November. How would yall have reacted if your vacuum started harassing your pet and spitting slurs?


Recently a Kit and Kin (resturaunt) in MASSACHUSETTS was temporarlliy closed down after they provided service to people wearing WWII reenactment outfits. 2 of the people in the group were wearing nazi outfits. The resturatunt owners apologized online saying “In hindsight, they should have been asked to change before being seated. Even though we knew they were living historians, at a time when acts of anti-Semitic violence continue to rise, we should have realized other diners might not be aware of the local WWII re-enactment,”. Even though they apologized for letting the somewhat insensitive outfits for people unaware many people came and harassed adn threatened the owners and they have decided to temporarily close down. The museum also had a few comments saying that it was inappropriate because they have strict rules about when adn where to wear the outfits. I personally feel that people over reacted for servicing people they knew were actors and apologizing after but what do you guys think??


Down in a school in MASSACHUSETTS the parents of a student decide to sue the school after their son was punished for using AI for his history assignment. The parents say that the school called them because their son had cheated on his assignment but parents say that he used AI for research and not to make the assignment. Wether or not that is true has not been determined yet. But I personally think if he used it solely to research the topic it shouldnt be counted as cheating. To continue the parents think that his punishment was too extreme ; he was barred from being able to go into the National Honor Society as well as his grade being drastically lowered. The parents have gone to federal court and filled a report because he was already a good student and it had too much of a negative impact on his future education because he was planning on going to elite colleges and universities because of his high level of academic achievments. The filing demands that his grade be raised back to a b and that he be apointed to the national honors society as well as more specific rules in the rule book about AI usage. The schools handbook states “unauthorized use or close imitation of the language and thoughts of another author including artificial intelligence and the representaiton of such as one's own work” Do you guys think he was punished excesivley? Or that the rules were unclear?


If this weeks report sounds wonky apologies I didnt have as much time this week. Anyways hope yall had a good week people of PMC. Also whats up with all these places starting with letter M having these strange stories this week.
