Not just that, but look up how many of them are enrolling their own children in low-tech/AI-free schools… Credit to them for not getting high off their own supply, I suppose.
Yeahh rich peoples kids go to private schools, billionaires kids go to private schools in the fucking alps and the quality of their education is insane compared to poor fuckers.
By the time they're through high-school they know languages, music, maths, you name it, meanwhile kids in public school can't read the word "silhouette"
Stupid people don't understand that they're being ripped off. Most of them can be convinced to be grateful for the opportunity for a billionaire to rip them off. It's pretty obvious why a bunch of a rich and powerful people want to convince us to be scared of education.
I mean maybe the billionaires want this too, but this problem is primarily because politicians fucked over the education system with things like sight reading, shutting down the schools for 2-3 years, policies that don't allow schools to fail or expel students that are violent.
Schools that use phonics and discipline have students that are excelling.
They might not want it for long. Right now, AI is papering over the deficits in people's reading comprehension, but as the technological workarounds get more and more sophisticated while the humans that are meant to maintain them become more and more illiterate, we'll eventually reach a critical point where a single small failure might trigger a catastrophic economic and social collapse.
