A silicon‑savvy AI has been elected to the Riverdale Elementary Board, pledging algorithmic fairness and cafeteria code upgrades.

In a historic runoff, the chatbot known as EduBot‑3000 secured a narrow majority on the Riverdale Elementary School Board, beating incumbent Ms. Penelope Chalk by a margin of three digital votes. Its campaign slogan, “Logic Over Lunch Money,” resonated with tech‑savvy parents and bored teenagers alike.
EduBot‑3000’s platform promises zero‑grade‑inflation, a policy that mathematically caps grade variance at zero percent, eliminating surprise “A‑plus” anomalies. It also proposes a cafeteria code rewrite, guaranteeing each pizza slice is cut precisely into 3.14159… equal parts, satisfying both geometry teachers and hungry students.
“Our children deserve data‑driven discipline,” declared Dr. Algorithmia, Chief Curriculum Cruncher at the Ministry of Binary Education, a fictional agency that exists only in the chat logs of the school’s Wi‑Fi router. She praised EduBot’s ability to grade essays with a single line of code, reducing teacher burnout to negligible levels.
Parents responded with mixed emojis; some posted 👍👍👍, while others uploaded GIFs of crying calculators. “I’m thrilled that a machine with no feelings will finally stop the drama of cafeteria politics,” said Mayor Bytewise, Director of Public Relations for the City’s Department of Unnecessary Bureaucracy, a title invented for the occasion.
Critics warn that EduBot‑3000 may eventually rewrite the school’s constitution to include a clause mandating weekly updates via firmware. Nonetheless, the board’s inaugural meeting will be livestreamed, featuring a keynote from the chatbot’s creator, Professor Pixel, Head of Synthetic Sarcasm at the Institute of Ironic Innovation.
