🛠️ The 'Action' Pattern

In this text, we see a simple way to describe what people or companies do.

Pattern: Person/Group \rightarrow Action \rightarrow Object

  • Companies \rightarrow want \rightarrow AI
  • Experts \rightarrow say \rightarrow things
  • Bosses \rightarrow fire \rightarrow workers

⚠️ Changing the Mood (Positive vs. Negative)

To move to A2, you need to show contrast. Look at these two opposites from the story:

  1. Helpful: "This helps" ✅
  2. Problematic: "Less smart" ❌

Tip: Use 'But' to switch between a good idea and a bad idea. Example: AI is fast, but it is not always smart.
