> There will however be a gigantic gulf between kids who use AI to learn vs those who use AI to aid learning

yeah, but not the way you are thinking

you think the rich are going to abolish a traditional education for their kids and dump them in front of a prompt text box for 8 years

that'll just be for the poor and (formerly) middle-class kids

In the rosiest view, the rich give their children private tutors (and always have), and now the poor can give their children private tutors too, in the form of AIs. More realistically, what the poor get is something which looks superficially like a private tutor, yet instead of accelerating and deepening learning, it is one that allows the child to skip understanding entirely. Which, from a cynical point of view, suits the rich just fine...

I think what?
