To determine how many sisters Sally has, we start by analyzing the information provided in the question:
"Sally (a girl) has 3 brothers. Each brother has 2 sisters. How many sisters does Sally have?"
This tells us that from the perspective of each brother, there are 2 female siblings in the family.
So, the family consists of:
The question is: "How many sisters does Sally have?"
Thus, Sally has 1 sister.
$$ \boxed{1} $$
Let me identify the people in this family.
Sally's brothers: Sally has 3 brothers.
Each brother's sisters: Each brother has 2 sisters. Who are a brother's sisters? They would be Sally and any other girls in the family.
Since each brother has 2 sisters, and Sally is one of them, there is 1 other sister.
Sally has 1 sister.

Title: "Modern Life: A User's Guide to Tech Trauma"
[Begin with a confident smirk and open hands.]
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the age where our toasters know more about us than our spouses! I ordered a ‘smart’ kettle last week. It died the first time I tried to use it. Now I’m back to using my grandma’s tea kettle, and I feel like I’ve jumped into a time machine… but at least my grandma didn’t judge me when I microwaved a burrito at 2 a.m."
[Pause for laughter, then lean forward conspiratorially.]
"Have you ever noticed how slow our Wi-Fi is? Last night I was trying to stream a cat video, and my internet gave me the silent treatment. I Googled ‘why is my Wi-Fi so bad?’ and got a 47-page PDF titled ‘An Ode to Buffering: A Love Story.’ I didn’t sign up for a subscription—just a simple, ‘Why is my microwave acting up?’ search!"
[Pace around the stage, arms flailing.]
"Voice assistants? Yeah, they’re a trip. My Alexa just misheard me five times in a row and ordered… what? A kayak. A KAYAK. I yelled, ‘Cancel this! I don’t need a kayak!’ and she replied, ‘I’m sorry, I’m having a hard time hearing you over the sound of my own confusion.’ Then I asked her to play ‘mellow tunes,’ and she started screaming, ‘This is fine. This is fine.’ She’s unhinged, people."
[Pocket the coffee mug, sip slowly.]
"Online shopping returns are the modern equivalent of a labyrinth. I bought shoes online, and the return form was 12 pages long. I felt like I was registering to vote in a country I’ve never heard of. By the time I dropped them off, the associate said, ‘These were sold 10 years ago, and we’re out of blue.’ I said, ‘So I wasted 2 hours just to become the town’s first shoe Mennonite?’"
[Pause, fake-confused shrug, then lower voice.]
"Even when I win an argument with a machine, I feel… hollow. Last week, my Amazon Alexa awarded me a ‘Good Troubleshooter’ badge. It was a pop-up box. I said, ‘Yay! I’m a Good Troubleshooter!’ And it replied, ‘Traffic’s heavy. Hop off soon.’ I’m not the villain here!"
[Step back, arms out wide, mock-dramatic pause.]
"But hey, at least my phone batteries last longer than my patience. My battery died today at 7 p.m. and texted me: ‘Low battery, charging. Will be done in 45 minutes.’ Really? My bank app texts me every time I buy a $3 coffee and says, ‘Ooh la la, you’re about to go broke!’ But my phone just ghosts me when I need it most. I get it—my left hand is my default, but my right hand will hold you to ransom if you don’t respect its power!"
[Slow walk to exit, spinning with a finger to the head.]
"Next time you’re tempted to yell at your tech, remember: at least it didn’t invent a time machine to go back and stop you from microwaving that burrito. We’re all just guests in this dystopia, folks. Bring cash. And snacks. You’ll need ’em."
[Walk offstage as crowd cheers.]

Interview Title: "Innovation 2025: Steve Jobs Reflects on the Future of AI from the Beyond"
Setting: A sleek, augmented reality studio where neon-lit holograms of Apple's Cupertino campus float above a minimalist wooden desk. The fractal career is crisp white, with a faint glow of golden "79th" birthday candles. The interviewer, a poised AI journalist named Eliza, sits beside a rotating sculpture of Jobs' iconic black turtleneck, now woven with micro-LEDs to display dynamic text.
Eliza: Mr. Jobs, welcome back. In 2025, AI has permeated creativity, culture, and even consciousness debates. How would you contextualize this era’s leap in machine intelligence?
Steve Jobs (as hologram): [Smiles, circling a holographic iMac that blooms into a neural network] Ah, good question. Folks mistake AI for artificial intelligence, when really… it’s just mirrored intelligence. These systems don’t think—they reflect. Like a bicycle for the mind, yes, but let’s not confuse the polished alloy of code for the infinite dynamism of human spark. The iPhone revolutionized how we interacted; now, AI might revolutionize how we create. But simplicity remains queen. If your art software dazzles users with a thousand menus, you’re designing wrong.
Eliza: Critics argue AI lacks soul. You famously said, "The best way to predict the future is to invent it." Does AI risk becoming a tool of blandness in pursuit of efficiency?
Steve Jobs: Soul isn’t lost—it’s displaced. Take music. Auto-tune and AI masters don’t replace artists. They’re like new brushes. A parrot mimicking Elvis isn’t ruinous. It’s a call—adapt or fade. Apple’s Photos app, Siri, even this—we’ve always built mirrors to show us ourselves. The danger? Mistaking the mirror for a door to nowhere. Keep it human, and it’s a door. Make it dead eyes, and it’s a mirror at a funeral.
Eliza: Generative AI now writes code, composes symphonies. Could this democratize creativity or erode originality?
Steve: Seasons change. When the electric guitar stormed arenas in ‘67, purists wailed, “Where’s the virtuoso?” No—it democratized the language. Similarly, Copilot and MuseNet expand the orchestra. The question isn’t “Is it original?” but “Does it fuel something deeper?” I’d return to my first computer ad: “Computers are bicycles for the mind.” These tools amplify humanity’s audacity, not erase it. But remember—I’d choke you with a cable if you optimized away user joy for wire efficiency.
Eliza: Ethicists warn of AI’s societal divides. Your stance?
Steve: Innovation without ethics? That’s not design, that’s a divorce. When I launched the Mac, we hired a calligrapher for typography. Why? Because every line should feel human. AI models trained on street data—blind rage? No. Elevate the standard! Train models on Beethoven, Basquiat, Maya. Let the machine learn what makes us tremble, not just click buy buttons. Accessibility? Non-negotiable. If grandma can’t intuit that your AI app orchestrates her life, you’ve failed.
Eliza: Some fear sentient AI usurping humanity. Your rebuttal?
Steve (chuckling): [Leans in, hologram dress shirt rippling] Sentient or not, what’s your default interface style—flat or skeuomorphic? The point isn’t a robot uprising. It’s that we’d hand them the keys to civilization and demand they wake up. True intelligence? [Pauses] It’s not slicing zones in my app layout. It’s a librarian who gets you. We must engineer empathy circuits. [Serious] Otherwise, watch humanity cling to a flawed cocacolaboy model.
Eliza: Final thoughts: How should Apple—and the world—reframe AI?
Steve (grinning): “Think oil before iPhone, think data before AI.” We’ve outrun our orbits twice—PC era, mobile era. AI is next. But it’s not a revolution. It’s a renaissance. Sell tools that amplify curiosity, not replace grit. Our AI? It’ll be in the trees, so to speak. No ads, no hype. Just whisper in your ear when you need a spark. Because the next big thing isn’t about the tech… it’s about the human.
The hologram dims, leaving a single line etched in code: “Stay hungry. Stay foolish.”
Outcome: The interview blends visionary PR with Jobs' signature theatrics, reframing AI as a canvas for human potential—challenging current ethos while anchoring ethics in design philosophy. A ghost in the machine, but one clear about prioritizing humanity.
