It's a dumbass LLM. Kids are devious. They'll figure out how to break it within 10 minutes and every "class" will just be about making the TeacherAI say swear words and skibidi toilet.

you're probably right, I'm starting to come around on the subject
turtle island mao is gonna have to teach illeterate peasants how to read in 2070
Literacy campaigns are good and something we should be doing now
Unfortunately I am lazy and self centered :(

It's only 2 hours a day at certain "Charter schools" (idk what those are and I flat out refuse to learn)
Having these LLMs just disseminating incorrect information to children is a good bit. Americans would rather be wrong than pay teachers more.
My wife had no idea what charter schools were and thought they sounded “neat”, so I had to learn and then explain to her how awful they are. TL;DR they are horrible and uniquely American.
They are essentially for-profit schools run within a public school district. They face fewer “regulations” on what they can do. The public school district pays the school money for each student who goes there. They sell themselves as having more ability to address issues in education “creatively” but in reality they just have non-union teachers who they can pay less. Americans are suckers for this because a lot of them buy into the notion that “competition makes for better education”. Practically speaking I can see two reasons they exist:
‘1. To make profit. That’s what this AI thing is about, it’s cheaper than teachers and the company that runs the school gets to keep that profit.
‘2. Some charter schools are sort of quasi- religious. Like, they can’t be openly religious but they will kinda sneak stuff in there. Lots of American Christians want their kids to get a religious education but can’t afford private religious school.
IIRC charter schools are also able to pick and choose the students with the highest test scores while blocking lower-scoring students from going to them. They then point to their schools having higher test scores as a reason why public schools should be further defunded.
And they expel students with behavioral problems or learning disabilities, thrusting them on an underfunded public school system and again inflating results.
We truly despise children in this country.
So yeah this country is gonna be full on illiterate by 2035 isn't it? If it even lasts that long...

When I read the title I couldn't help but think of what UlyssesT would say, with him being a teacher and his rightful hate of the "AI" treat machine.
It would be laden with emojis and thick with venom.
Also will use as much electricity as several iron foundries to do this.
Smh we could be teaching kids how to forge iron ingots instead.
Thanks to financial support and lobbying by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, many public and private schools have integrated personalized learning software like IXL and Khan Academy into their teacher-led curriculum
“The founders of Unbound Academic Institute began with opening a high-end private school, Alpha, for the same reason Elon Musk started with higher-end Teslas: to create a product that generates insights and funding for future research and development,”
Are parents actually sending their kids to these things? Is it like how charter schools in some places work where they defund public education for black kids and give them vouchers to go to charter schools?
Lathe time: Europe, alongside Canada, Australia, and NZ all realize that they don’t need to exploit the global south anymore. Americans will gladly exploit themselves out of some childish desire to “look tough”.
So naturally the rest of the world will exploit Americans, and it wouldn’t count because Americans explicitly ask to be exploited.
