LIFE SKILLS CLASS: HOW TO HACK YOUR AI HOMEWORK BOT
Moms for Liberty’s Tina Descovich discusses first lady Melania Trump’s call to prepare kids for AI, warning parents must control the technology in classrooms and hold Big Tech accountable.
An unconventional private school model that replaces traditional classroom lectures with artificial intelligence is gearing up for a massive nationwide expansion this fall, even as critics and powerful teachers unions sound the alarm.
Alpha Schools, which says its students learn twice as fast as those in “standard” schools, is planning to open new campuses in Chicago, Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh, and several California hubs, including Santa Monica, Palo Alto, and the East Bay. The school already operates in Austin, New York, and Miami.
The Alpha model is built on a “two-hour core” subject requirement. Students spend their mornings using adaptive AI software to master academics like math and English before transitioning to an afternoon of “life skills” workshops and project-based learning.
AI RISKS TO KIDS, WORKERS RISING FASTER THAN REGULATION, NEW GROUP WARNS
Despite the high-end branding, the school is facing a wall of skepticism from the education establishment. Researchers warn that the long-term effects of removing human teachers from the primary instructional role are unknown.

What did "Mr. Guitar," as he came to be known, trade to get that first guitar?
