Alpha School, a pricey private school with campuses nationwide, uses artificial intelligence to instruct students. AI schools have been praised by the Trump administration, but researchers say there's limited evidence the model works.

    Home school or Accelerated Christian Education with extra steps and more cost.

    ETA: https://www.tomsguide.com/ai/have-you-heard-of-mackenzie-price-why-the-co-founder-of-the-usd65k-a-year-alpha-school-is-being-called-the-elon-musk-of-ai-education

    Florida, Texas, San Francisco. Go figure.

      I’d be pretty surprised if ambassadors of AI technologies would send their kids there themselves. Usually you hear the opposite about bosses of tech giants. And the concern the author of the article had - that her neurodivergent daughter could benefit from that more than from traditional learning environment - leaves me even less inspired, for the failing of the latter is generally in the lack of teachers, 1-on-1 personal work with a student, while this “personalized” approach removes teachers even further.
